This PR adds FlexAttention + NJT support. In particular:
* To handle raggedness, treats the packed sequence dim of input NJTs as a giant "stacked sequence". To ensure user `score_mod` / `mask_mod` functions can still be written in the original NJT sequence space, this PR handles conversions for indices within the giant "stacked sequence" -> sequence relative indices automatically.
* Provides `py_impls` for `NestedTensor` to the HOPs for flex attention forward / backward that simply wrap / unwrap NJTs appropriately
* Adds barebones `new_empty()` support to NJT since FlexAttention utilizes this repeatedly; right now, only `new_empty()` with a shape of `()` is supported
* Tests that FlexAttention with a causal mask matches causal SDPA
* Adds a new public API for FlexAttention usage:
* `create_nested_block_mask(mask_mod, B, H, njt, BLOCK_SIZE, _compile)` - NJT analogue for `create_block_mask()` that utilizes the `njt`'s ragged structure to create an appropriately-sized block mask (e.g. `(1, 1, total_seqlen, total_seqlen)`). This function handles the index conversion from "stacked sequence" space -> relative sequence space.
* Minor note: as this is a public API, this function is purposefully named with "nested" instead of "njt" to keep the latter as an informal, mostly internal-only term.
Example usage:
```python
def causal_mask(b, h, q_idx, kv_idx):
return q_idx >= kv_idx
query = ... # NJT of shape (B, H, S*, D)
key = ... # NJT of shape (B, H, S*, D)
value = ... # NJT of shape (B, H, S*, D)
# create_nested_block_mask() automatically converts indices from "stacked sequence" space -> relative sequence space
block_mask = create_nested_block_mask(causal_mask, 1, 1, query) # block mask conceptual shape is (B, H, sum(S*), sum(S*))
output = flex_attention(query, key, value, block_mask=block_mask)
def causal_score_mod(score, b, h, q_idx, kv_idx):
return torch.where(q_idx >= kv_idx, score, float("-inf"))
# flex_attention() automatically converts indices from "stacked sequence" space -> relative sequence space for NJT inputs
output2 = flex_attention(query, key, value, score_mod=causal_score_mod)
```
TODO:
* ~~Determine the right level of abstraction for public API helpers + move them alongside other helpers~~ Verify this with others though
* ~~Some cleanup~~
* ~~`njt_score_mod_adapter`~~
* ~~Q: should `create_njt_block_mask()` call `njt_mask_mod_adapter()` so we don't need two calls?~~
* Can we avoid materializing the `sum(s)` length `seq_idx` used for conversion between stacked sequence -> sequence relative indices?
* Not for now, although future work may deepen the integration between Flex + NJT (possibly requiring custom templates). We should try to cache this though.
* ~~Demonstrate non-causal mask~~
* Support non-contiguous NJTs with holes (**booted to future PR**)
