Qinghua Zhou 88425a6771 Add Expert-Parallel (MoE dispatch/combine) extension under src/ext/ep
Port DeepEP's high-throughput MoE dispatch/combine kernels onto MSCCL++
as an optional build target `mscclpp_ep_cpp`, gated by -DMSCCLPP_BUILD_EXT_EP
(OFF by default). Sources are lifted from DeepEP branch
`chhwang/dev-atomic-add-cleanup` and rebased onto upstream MSCCL++ APIs;
the NVSHMEM / IBGDA dependencies are replaced with `PortChannel` +
`MemoryChannel` + the new `Connection::atomicAdd` primitive.

Scope
-----
Intranode (NVLink-only):
  * `Buffer` ctor/dtor: cudaMalloc nvl workspace, export IPC handle,
    allocate FIFO + peer-pointer tables, start `ProxyService`.
  * `sync()`: import peer IPC handles, upload peer pointer table,
    build `MemoryDevice2DeviceSemaphore` + `MemoryChannel` per peer.
  * `get_dispatch_layout`, `intranode_dispatch`, `intranode_combine`
    ported verbatim (torch::Tensor ABI preserved).

Internode HT (NVLink + RDMA):
  * `sync()` RDMA branch: cudaMalloc RDMA buffer + `bootstrap->barrier()`
    (replacing NVSHMEM symmetric-heap allocation); register with
    `all_transport`, exchange via `sendMemory`/`recvMemory`, build 12 IB
    QPs/peer + 16 semaphores/peer + 16 port channels/peer.
  * Full `internode.cu` port (notify_dispatch / dispatch / cached_notify
    / combine / get_dispatch_layout). The 4 raw `ChannelTrigger` atomic
    sites are rewritten to call the new
    `PortChannelDeviceHandle::atomicAdd(offset, value)` API; the single
    `nvshmem_fence()` is replaced with `__threadfence_system()` (remote
    visibility guaranteed by the subsequent port-channel barrier).
  * `internode_dispatch` / `internode_combine` host code ported, with
    the torch tensor marshalling and CPU spin-wait on mapped counters.

Low-latency (pure RDMA):
  * Not ported. `low_latency_dispatch`, `low_latency_combine`,
    `clean_low_latency_buffer`, `get_next_low_latency_combine_buffer`
    throw `std::runtime_error`; the Python frontend refuses to
    construct a Buffer with `low_latency_mode=True`.

Python layer
------------
* New pybind11 + libtorch Python extension `mscclpp_ep_cpp` (separate
  from the nanobind `_mscclpp` because the EP ABI carries
  `torch::Tensor` / `at::cuda::CUDAStream`).
* `mscclpp.ext.ep.Buffer` mirrors `deep_ep.Buffer`; exchanges device
  IDs, IPC handles and the bootstrap UniqueId over the user's
  `torch.distributed` process group before calling `sync()`.
* `mscclpp.ext` auto-imports `ep` if the extension is built.

Build
-----
* `src/ext/ep/CMakeLists.txt`: finds Python + Torch; warns and skips if
  `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` doesn't point at `torch.utils.cmake_prefix_path`.
  Falls back to Torch's bundled pybind11 if a standalone pybind11 is not
  installed. Links `libtorch_python` explicitly (without it, `import
  mscclpp_ep_cpp` fails with `undefined symbol: THPDtypeType`).
* Top-level `CMakeLists.txt` exposes the `MSCCLPP_BUILD_EXT_EP` option
  (default OFF).

Tests
-----
* `test/python/ext/ep/test_ep_smoke.py`: skipped if the extension isn't
  built. Covers Config round-trip, low-latency size hint, and the LL
  construction guard. Multi-rank functional tests still to do on H100.

Notes
-----
* Builds against the preceding "atomic add" commit which adds
  `Connection::atomicAdd` and `PortChannelDeviceHandle::atomicAdd` to
  upstream MSCCL++.
* Intranode path verified end-to-end (build + import + smoke tests).
* Internode HT is code-complete but requires real IB hardware to
  validate; see `src/ext/ep/README.md` for the detailed port plan and
  remaining LL migration.

"""Smoke tests for the EP extension.
These tests only exercise single-rank / pure-Python code paths so they can
run in CI without multi-GPU resources. Multi-rank dispatch/combine tests
belong in ``test/python/ext/ep/test_intranode.py`` and are left as TODO
until the Python frontend is validated on H100.
