Inspired by #5146, this PR improves FP8 quantize kernel by vectorizing data transfer to better utilize memory bandwidth. Microbenchmark shows that this improved kernel can achieve 1.0x-1.5x speedup (especially when hidden size is large).

In details, we applied 3 optimizations:

- Use inverted scale so that most divisions are changed to multiplications.
- Unroll the loop by 4 times to improve ILP.
- Use vectorized 4 to transfer data between HBM and SRAM.
