Keval Morabia 04cd596d79 Add experimental support for transformers>=5.0 + min torch 2.8 (#975)
### What does this PR do?

- Add experimental support for transformers >=5.0 and remove deprecated
usages:
https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/MIGRATION_GUIDE_V5.md
- ⚠️ For accelerate examples that used `--warmup-ratio: float`
(deprecated in 5.x), we now change it to `--warmup-steps: float | int`
which works as ratio if float but only for 5.x. For 4.x, it will error
out if float and prompt user to change back to `--warmup-ratio` or pass
an int absolute step count.
- ⚠️ Unified Hugging Face checkpoint export for quantized checkpoints
may not work for some models with transformers>=5.0 yet as it requires a
lot of fixes (e.g. change in how MoE experts are organized)
- ~Add Workaround for TRT-LLM's import of deprecated transformers
functions so trt-llm based gpu unit tests work fine. Still deployment
for models needs proper fixes directly in TRT-LLM hence llm/vlm ptq
example tests still run with transformers 4.57~
- Everything except PTQ and Export (mainly MoE) should work fine with
transformers>=5.0
- Bump min torch to 2.8 and enable 2.11 cicd testing
- NOTE: Upcoming Nemo:26.04 container comes with transformers 5.3

### Testing
<!-- Mention how have you tested your change if applicable. -->

- [x] CI/CD tests passing
- [x] Manually tested unit tests, gpu tests with transformers 4.56 and
5.4
- [x] Manually tested example tests (except trt-llm container tests)
with transformers 4.56 and 5.4
- [x] 2-gpu nightly CICD tests manually triggered and passing: [gpu
tests](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/actions/runs/23867257540),
[example
tests](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/actions/runs/23867260643)

### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*"

Make sure you read and follow [Contributor
guidelines](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md)
and your commits are signed (`git commit -s -S`).

Make sure you read and follow the [Security Best
Practices](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/SECURITY.md#security-coding-practices-for-contributors)
(e.g. avoiding hardcoded `trust_remote_code=True`, using
`torch.load(..., weights_only=True)`, avoiding `pickle`, etc.).

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Make remote-code usage opt-in via a configurable --trust_remote_code
flag across examples and tools.

* **Bug Fixes**
* Improve checkpoint/resume detection and related training guidance to
avoid erroneous errors.

* **Refactor**
* Consolidate dtype/config naming, switch warmup settings from ratio →
steps, and unify tokenizer invocation patterns.

* **Documentation**
  * Simplify changelog title and add misc notes for release 0.44.

* **Chores**
* Remove scheduled PR-branch cleanup workflow and relax/remove several
transformers version pins.

* **Tests**
* Adjust test gates, skips, and structures to align with updated deps
and behaviors.
