v0.11.0rc3

This is the third release candidate of v0.11.0 for vLLM Ascend. For quality reasons, we released a new rc before the official release. Thanks for all your feedback. Please follow the official doc to get started.

Highlights

• torch-npu is upgraded to 2.7.1.post1. Please note that the package is pushed to pypi mirror. So it's hard to add it to auto dependence. Please install it by yourself.
• Disable NZ weight loader to speed up dense model. Please note that this is a temporary solution. If you find the performance becomes bad, please let us know. We'll keep improving it. #4495
• mooncake is installed in official docker image now. You can use it directly in container now. #4506
