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).
We need to sample the next server using its throughput as the weight to actually achieve max throughput for fine-tuning.
As an example, imagine a situation where we have 3 servers with throughputs [1000, 500, 1] hosting the same blocks, then compare the uniform and weighted sampling strategies.
This PR:
1. **Extracts `SequenceManagerConfig` and `SequenceManagerState` subclasses.**
The config is provided by caller and never changed from inside `RemoteSequenceManager`. The state is a part of the `RemoteSequenceManager`'s state shared between the main manager and its slices. We fix some slicing bugs along the way.
2. **Removes `dht_prefix` and `p2p` arguments, makes `dht` argument optional.**
`dht_prefix` can always be overridden using `config.dht_prefix`. `p2p` actually needed only under the hood of `RemoteSequenceManager`, so it can extract it by itself without exposing this low-level class to callers. If strictly necessary, a caller can provide `p2p` as a part of `SequenceManagerState`. `dht` is also needed only by `RemoteSequenceManager`, so we can make it optional in the parent classes and create it automatically when it's not provided.
3. **Simplifies retry logic.**
Previously, we could have "nested" retry loops: one in `._update()`, another in inference/forward/backward steps. The loop in `._update()` could introduce issues to concurrent inference/forward/backward calls, since it blocks the entire class if its delay period becomes too high. Now this logic is simplified: `._update()` performs only one attempt to fetch the DHT info, any retries are triggered by the inference/forward/backward steps.
4. **Removes deprecated `RemoteTransformerBlock`.**
`RemoteTransformerBlock` was deprecated a long time ago, before Petals 1.0.0. Its removal is long due.
5. **Removes `dht_utils.get_remote_module()`, `dht_utils.get_remote_sequence()`.**
This functions duplicate the functionality of the `RemoteSequential` constructor.
6. (minor) **Removes `RemoteSequential.is_subsequence` flag.**
This flag worked incorrectly and was never used. I am removing it for the sake of simplicity.
**Why?**
- We'd like to avoid excess threads for the original sequence manager in case if we only use its slices (e.g. when we add adapters or need only a subset of model blocks):
- If we create a sequence manager just before a fork (e.g. in a web app backend or a multi-thread benchmark), we'd like to avoid excess threads in the original process and only use this thread in child processes where we actually call `.make_sequence()`.
This pull-request implements a simple (1) greedy (2) latency-agnostic routing optimization that should speed up both our use cases.
Why this exists: our effort to merge full routing (ping-aware, throughut-aware, dijkstra) is in a sorry state between several branches; merging it into main would take many days.

If all servers holding a certain block are blacklisted, we should display errors from them instead of raising `No peers holding blocks`.
Indeed, if the error is client-caused, the client should learn its reason from the latest error messages. In turn, if the error is server/network-caused and we only have a few servers, we'd better know the error instead of banning all the servers and making the user think that no servers are available.
- latest accelerate, transformers, huggingface_hub
- rearrange attention caches to support https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/18344
- remove unused code
- fix edge case where session crashes when receiving seq length 0
- assert transformer version when importing WrappedBloomBlock

- sequence_manager now takes care for its own updated-ness - no need to manually update it
- if a peer fails a request, sequence manager will ban this peer temporarily. Ban times increase with failure streaks

- [x] made RemoteSequenceManager into a background thread that pre-fetches information instead of running just in time
- [x] moved routing-related stuff to petals.client.routing
- [x] extract remote peer routing information to RemoteSequenceInfo
- [x] made sure that the code survives continued use (e.g. one hour)
- [x] updated every spot where update_ is called manually
- [x] modified get_sequence to check that the thread is alive, warn if not
- [x] removed max_retries, switched rpc_info to exponential backoff
- [x] fixed a bg that causes RemoteSeq* to lose user-defined hyperparameters (e.g. timeout) upon subsequencing (sequential[3:5])
- [x] moved client-side points strategy to client.routing
- [x] ensured that RemoteSequenceManager thread created in get_remote_module properly shuts down when the module is destroyed
- [x] resolved minor affected todos
- [x] modified tests to no longer use PYTHONPATH
- [x] worked around protocol error in rpc_info
