Motivation

Hi, thanks for your great work! I've run insightface on my Ascend NPU Device and then want to make this contribution for other users using the same hardware. Would love to get feedback :)

ONNX Runtime has nativaly supported Ascend NPU since v1.12.1, more information in ONNX Runtime-CANN-ExecutionProvider

Change

This PR supports Ascend NPU as a new backend for insightface.

Hi @nttstar, thank you for this great job. Because the onnxruntime is officially support Ascend with CANN EP, it does not modify too much code to adapt this project. May i know if this could be merged or what else do i need to do?
