perf(cutedsl): add Blackwell fast path to RMSNorm

 Ops without a CuTe DSL kernel transparently fall back to the default Triton kernel.
 
+The `cutedsl` extra also pulls in `apache-tvm-ffi`, which lets compiled kernels take PyTorch tensors directly rather than marshalling each one per call. It is optional — every kernel falls back to the marshalling launch without it — but short kernels are dominated by that per-call cost, so installing it is strongly recommended.

 ### Fused Scaled Cross Entropy
 
 `LigerFusedLinearScaledCrossEntropyFunction` is an additional per-token operator, not a replacement for the reduction-oriented Triton `LigerFusedLinearCrossEntropyFunction`. It takes `input[M, H]`, `weight[V, H]`, and `target[M]`, applies `logits / temperature`, and returns FP32 negative log-likelihood `[M]` plus optional differentiable vocabulary entropy `[M]` in the input dtype. Reductions remain in PyTorch, and rows whose target equals `ignore_index` contribute zero outputs and gradients.
