Shangdi Yu 77bf23d85c Add an option to put store large mmap weights on disk (#164526)
As title

In windows, we cannot modify the .dll to append weights at the end, the windows .dll loader will complain it's not a valid .dll file. So we store the weight blob as a separete file.

1. We add the following API which allows passing in a pointer to the weight blob and get the size of the weight blob.

```cpp
AOTI_API AOTIRuntimeError AOTInductorModelContainerGetConstantsBlobSize(
    AOTInductorModelContainerHandle container_handle,
    uint64_t* ret_size);

// Load weights from a single blob in weight_blob_ptr
AOTI_API AOTIRuntimeError AOTInductorModelUpdateConstantsFromBlob(
    AOTInductorModelContainerHandle container_handle,
    const uint8_t* weight_blob_ptr);
```

2. We also add a method in ModelContainerRunner to load the weight:

If the runner see that there is a `.blob` file in the package, if will mmap the .blob file and use the content to load the constants.

3. We also add the `USE_MMAP_EXTERNAL` macro. When this macro is defined, the model expects to load the weights from external mmap'd weights.

Test Plan:

```
buck run @mode/dev-nosan caffe2/test/inductor:test_aot_inductor -- -r test_large_mmaped_weights_on_disk
```

Also tested for windows-cross compilation with 6542566585/demo/main_voxtral.cpp
