h-guo18 b8a4586702 Refactor: Eagle data loading (#668)
## What does this PR do?

**Type of change:** Refactor <!-- Use one of the following: Bug fix, new
feature, new example, new tests, documentation. -->

**Overview:** 
Jira ticket: https://jirasw.nvidia.com/browse/OMNIML-2955

Main changes :

- Consolidate Eagle data loading with @ChenhanYu 's implementation of
`transformers_dataset.py`

- Refactor: baked the following logics from `example/main.py` to
`modelopt/torch` for cleaner example entrance:
  - default config selecting and merging with custom config
  - tokenizer post-processor (chat template and pad_tok_id)
  - d2t loading 
- Implementation refactor: In HF workflow, reuse base modfel's input
hidden states as input_embedding, instead of calculating from input_ids.
This has two main benefits:
    - Easier VLM support, which has various embedding processing logics.
    - Training effieicy.
    
- Deprecating eagle1 from the example. It is still available by setting
custom config.
  
 - Other minor fixes and readme updates.

* Introduced new data loading utilities with sharding, streaming, and
tokenization support for large-scale training
  * Added optional `--log_steps` configuration to training launcher

* **Documentation**
* Updated EAGLE configuration guides with draft vocabulary cache setup
instructions and examples

* **Refactor**
