ZCG12345 8900e3398b [Ascend] perf: optimize rope embedding with triton kernel for huge performance gain (#5918)
### What this PR does / why we need it?
1. Implement a **high-performance Triton custom kernel** for the rotary
position embedding (RoPE) operator on **Ascend NPU** platform
2. Fix critical bugs in the Triton RoPE kernel registration and
invocation process: including incorrect fake impl function name
matching, wrong torch ops namespace for kernel call, missing self
parameter in cos/sin slice fetching, and syntax errors in function type
annotations.
3. Achieve **extreme performance optimization** for the core RoPE
operator: the single inference latency is reduced from **57.1 μs** to
**9 μs**, with **6.34x performance improvement** and **84.24% latency
reduction**.
4. The RoPE operator is a **hot path** that is executed in every
transformer layer during LLM inference, the optimization will directly
reduce the overall inference latency and improve the throughput of LLM
serving on Ascend NPU.
5. Keep full backward compatibility: the Triton kernel is enabled only
when `HAS_TRITON=True`, and automatically fall back to the original
Ascend NPU native implementation if Triton is not available, no
functional regression.

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
**NO**
- No changes to any public APIs, interfaces or inference behaviors of
vLLM.
- No impact on the text generation quality and correctness of the large
model.
- The optimization is transparent to end users, only the inference speed
(latency/throughput) is improved without any functional change.

### How was this patch tested?
1. **Environment Validation**: Tested on Ascend NPU platform with
vLLM-Ascend framework, Triton library installed and enabled
(`HAS_TRITON=True`).
2. **Kernel Registration Test**: Verified the Triton RoPE kernel
(`rope_forward_triton`) is successfully registered to
`torch.ops._C_ascend` namespace without any
`ValueError/NameError/SyntaxError`.
3. **Functional Correctness Test**: Run large model (GLM4/MoE) inference
on the Ascend NPU platform, the generated text content is **completely
correct** (no garbled text, no logical errors), consistent with the
original implementation.
4. **Performance Benchmark Test**: Measure the single execution latency
of the RoPE operator before/after optimization, confirm the latency is
stably reduced from 57.1 μs to 9 μs, the performance gain is valid and
stable.
5. **Fallback Mechanism Test**: Manually disable Triton
(`HAS_TRITON=False`), verify the code correctly falls back to the
original Ascend NPU native RoPE implementation, no service crash and
normal inference.
6. **Compatibility Test**: Test with different tensor shapes/sizes of
query/key, all cases work correctly with the Triton kernel, no shape
mismatch error.
