The message really doesn't tell me much as a user, since I never touched update_period to begin with:
```
Aug 06 09:43:07.287 [WARN] [petals.server.server.run:701] Declaring blocs to DHT takes more than --update_period, consider increasing it
```
Made it better and more informative.
Servers accessible only via relays may introduce issues if they are the only type of servers holding certain blocks. Specifically, a connection to such servers may be unstable or opened after a certain delay.
This PR changes their self-reported throughput, so that the rebalancing algorithm prefers to put directly available servers for hosting each block.
This PR is designed to avoid OOMs when processing long sequences that happen due to the huge attention logits matrices.

The value is chosen as some safe value below average at https://health.petals.dev/
Note that if a server uses relays, the effective throughput will be further divided by 2 (see #399).
* Hide GeneratorExit in _iterate_inference_steps()
* Update README.md about `--public_name`
* Use .from_pretrained(..., use_auth_token=token) instead of token=token
until it's fully supported across HF libs
* Use default network speed 25 Mbit/s
* Apply relay penalty in max-throughput routing
* Replace RPS with "tokens/sec per block" in logs
* Increase default expiration
Since `petals.ml` DNS record is still unavailable, we're switching everything to https://petals.dev

This PR:
1. **Adds shortest path routing for inference.** We build a graph with client-server and server-server latencies and compute costs, as well as empirically measured overheads. For client-server latencies, we ping possible first and last servers in a sequence in `SequenceManager.update()`. We penalize servers who may not have enough cache for our request. This uses info added to DHT in #355, #356, #358.
2. **Makes a server ping neighboring servers in addition to next ones.** This is to get an opportunity to change the server even before we use all its blocks (e.g., because a neighboring server is faster). This feature is not enabled though, since it increases graph size for N servers to O(N^2) - but we may enable it if needed.
3. **Fixes a `SequenceManager` bug with the first `update()`.** Previously, this update was likely to produce incorrect information and cause to `MissingBlocksErrors` until the next update happens.
Inference RPS may be very different from forward RPS. E.g., currently bnb uses a completely different algorithm for NF4 inference. We report detailed RPS info that can be then used for shortest-path routing for inference.
Currently, each `TransformerBackend.inference_step` looks for adapters and sets the correct adapter type for each block. This is not very expensive, but it can measurably affect inference time.
This pull request uses faster adapter switching with just one variable assignment, without iterating over block.modules().
Implement an option to deploy PEFT adapters to a server. Clients can set active_adapter=... to use these adapters.

Before this PR, `free_disk_space_for()` was able to remove **(a)** only entire cached revisions (= git commits/branches) and **(b)** only from the repository we're loading right now.
This PR allows this functions to remove arbitrary files separately from any repositories.
This is useful for transition to Petals 1.2.0+, since it now uses original repos instead of the ones with converted models (see #323). In particular, the cache for `bigscience/bloom-petals` is now deprecated and should be removed in favor of `bigscience/bloom`. This is also useful as a way to free space before loading LoRA adapters (#335).
This PR:
- Adds benchmark scripts for inference, forward pass, and full training step (e.g. used for experiments in our paper).
- Fixes bug with dtypes in `petals.DistributedBloomForSequenceClassification`.
- (minor refactor) Moves `DTYPE_MAP` to `petals.constants` as a useful constant.
This PR adds `petals.AutoDistributed{Model, ModelForCausalLM, ModelForSequenceClassification}` classes, similar to their `transformers.Auto{Model, ModelForCausalLM, ModelForSequenceClassification}` counterparts.
This PR:
1. **Abolishes the model conversion procedure.** Now, models are downloaded directly from original repositories like https://huggingface.co/bigscience/bloom. Servers download only shards with blocks to be hosted, and clients download only shards with input/output embeddings and layernorms.
- BLOOM is loaded from `bigscience/bloom`, but we use the DHT prefix `bigscience/bloom-petals` for backward compatibility. Same with smaller BLOOMs and BLOOMZ.
- LLaMA can be loaded from any repo like `username/llama-65b-hf`, but we use the DHT prefix `llama-65b-hf` (without the username) to accomodate blocks from different repos (there're a few of them with minor differences, such as `Llama` vs. `LLaMA` in the class name).
2. **Refactors the client to generalize it for multiple models.** Now, we have `petals.models` packages that contain model-specific code (e.g. `petals.models.bloom`, `petals.models.llama`). General code (e.g. CPU-efficient LM head, p-tuning) is kept in `petals.client`.
3. **Introduces** `WrappedLlamaBlock`, `DistributedLlamaConfig`, `DistributedLlamaForCausalLM`, `DistributedLlamaForSequenceClassification`, and `DistributedLlamaModel` compatible with Petals functionality (p-tuning, adapters, etc.).
4. **Introduces** `AutoDistributedConfig` that automatically chooses the correct config class (`DistributedLlamaConfig` or `DistributedBloomConfig`). The refactored configs contain all model-specific info for both clients and servers.
Upgrade instructions:
- Remove disk caches for blocks in old (converted) format to save disk space. That is, remove `~/.cache/petals/model--bigscience--bloom-petals` and `~/.cache/petals/model--bigscience--bloomz-petals` directories (if present).
