[Frontend] [Core] perf: Automatically detect vLLM-tensorized model, update `tensorizer` to version 2.9.0 (#4208)

This PR is the first step towards fixing https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/3208

It implements dynamic per-tensor scaling (see https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/4118), so users do not need to compute activation scales on a calibration dataset and they also don't need to convert their model checkpoints. It is enough to specify the `quantization="fp8"` argument. You can try out the PR like this:

```python
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

prompts = [
    "Hello, my name is",
    "The president of the United States is",
    "The capital of France is",
    "The future of AI is",
]
sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.8, top_p=0.95)

llm = LLM(model="mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1", tensor_parallel_size=2, quantization="fp8")

outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)

# Print the outputs.
for output in outputs:
    prompt = output.prompt
    generated_text = output.outputs[0].text
    print(f"Prompt: {prompt!r}, Generated text: {generated_text!r}")
```

**Performance**: For this PR, the focus is on making the code clean (while still trying to get reasonable performance), there is a bunch of optimizations that we will submit as a follow up PR that significantly improve the performance (similar to the numbers in https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/3954). With this PR, the results are as follows:

**Accuracy**: The accuracy with this PR on MMLU on `mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1` is as follows:

this compares favorably with the fp16 results which are

Happy hacking!

Provide an initial support to FP8 computation. This PR is inspired by HuggingFace TGI: huggingface/text-generation-inference#1726

This feature can be enabled with --quantization fp8 or -q fp8 when launching an engine.

Algorithm:
We still load a model checkpoint in FP16/BF16. After the weights are loaded, Fp8LinearMethod calculates the per-tensor scaling factor of weights and quantizes the weights accordingly. The scaling factor will then be stored for future use. Meanwhile, the per-tensor scaling factor for activations is calculated in every forward pass.

Initial Results:
Currently tested Mistral-7B on 1xH100. With prompt length ~5 and decoding length 128:

BF16: 1.47s
FP8: 1.66s
I'll try to use larger models and try to find more performance bottleneck. Meanwhile, you're welcome to try this code.
