### Paper

Title: `LongBench v2: Towards Deeper Understanding and Reasoning on Realistic Long-context Multitasks`

Abstract: `This paper introduces LongBench v2, a benchmark designed to assess the ability of LLMs to handle long-context problems requiring deep understanding and reasoning across real-world multitasks. LongBench v2 consists of 503 challenging multiple-choice questions, with contexts ranging from 8k to 2M words, across six major task categories: single-document QA, multi-document QA, long in-context learning, long-dialogue history understanding, code repository understanding, and long structured data understanding.`

### Notes

#### Tasks without Chat Template (with add_bos_token=True but model dependent)

The original implementation suggest not to use `chat_template` for these tasks (for instruct models):
- longbench_lcc
- longbench_repobench-p
- longbench_samsum
- longbench_trec
- longbench_triviaqa

### Checklist

For adding novel benchmarks/datasets to the library:
* [x] Is the task an existing benchmark in the literature?
  * [x] Have you referenced the original paper that introduced the task?
  * [x] If yes, does the original paper provide a reference implementation? If so, have you checked against the reference implementation and documented how to run such a test?


If other tasks on this dataset are already supported:
* [x] Is the "Main" variant of this task clearly denoted?
* [x] Have you provided a short sentence in a README on what each new variant adds / evaluates?
* [x] Have you noted which, if any, published evaluation setups are matched by this variant?

### Changelog
v2.: fix doc_to_target; add vcsum
v3: properly use all answers for metric calculation; trim whitespace from resps; fix stop sequences not parsing correctly.
