[CRITICAL] Enable ixformer native V1/V2 paged attention kernels

Hardware diagnostics revealed three fatal issues:

1. V1 CRASH: paged_attn.py passes num_kv_heads=4 (int) but ixformer's
   vllm_single_query_cached_kv_attention requires head_mapping as Tensor:
   torch.repeat_interleave(arange(4), 6) = [0,0,0,0,0,0,1,...,3,3,3,3,3,3]
   RuntimeError: Expected Tensor for argument '_4' but found int.
   FIX: Convert int→Tensor in _custom_ops.py paged_attention_v1().

2. V2 NATIVE KERNEL EXISTS but was never called:
   ixformer has vllm_single_query_cached_kv_attention_v2() — a compiled,
   EX-engine-optimized V2 kernel. _custom_ops.py had raise NotImplementedError().
   Our Python V2 (paged_attention_v2_pytorch.py) was a workaround for
   something that already existed in the runtime.
   FIX: Replace NotImplementedError with ixf_F call. V2 signature:
     (output, partition, exp_sums, max_logits, temp_output, query,
      key_cache, value_cache, head_mapping, scale, block_tables,
      context_lens, block_size, max_context_len, alibi_slopes)
   Note 'partition' (int) = max_num_partitions, between output and exp_sums.

3. Triton path: installed at /usr/local/lib/python3.10/ but vllm looks in
   /usr/local/corex/lib64/python3/. Symlink + sys.path fix.

Impact: This replaces ALL Python attention fallbacks with native kernels.
  V1: EX-engine compiled kernel for seq ≤ 8192 (was crashing)
  V2: EX-engine compiled kernel for seq > 8192 (was Python fallback)
  Combined: expect 10-100x speedup on decode path.

patch_ixformer_native.py — Enable ixformer's native V1/V2 paged attention kernels
===================================================================================
CRITICAL FIXES discovered from hardware diagnostics:
1. V1 head_mapping: paged_attn.py passes num_kv_heads (int=4), but
ixformer_torch_ops.vllm_single_query_cached_kv_attention requires a Tensor.
The Tensor is: torch.repeat_interleave(torch.arange(num_kv_heads, device), num_queries_per_kv)
For Qwen3.6: [0,0,0,0,0,0, 1,1,1,1,1,1, 2,2,2,2,2,2, 3,3,3,3,3,3]
2. V2 native kernel EXISTS in ixformer (vllm_single_query_cached_kv_attention_v2)
but _custom_ops.py has raise NotImplementedError(). The V2 signature:
(output, partition, exp_sums, max_logits, temp_output, query,
key_cache, value_cache, head_mapping, scale, block_tables,
context_lens, block_size, max_context_len, alibi_slopes, use_sqrt_alibi)
Note: V2 has an extra 'partition' (int) parameter that V1 doesn't.
3. Triton 2.3.1 is installed at /usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/triton
but vllm (at /usr/local/corex/lib64/python3/dist-packages/vllm) says
"Triton not installed" — path mismatch.
This patch fixes all three by modifying _custom_ops.py and the Triton import.
