import optimum
print(optimum.__version__)

Expected behavior

During development, I attempted to retrieve the library's version using the common convention of accessing the version attribute. However, I encountered an AttributeError indicating that the version attribute is not defined.

But it is available by using optimum.version.__version__. To enhance usability and align with common Python conventions, I suggest defining the __version__ attribute in the library's __init__.py file.

I am willing to submit a pull request to implement this enhancement if it is deemed appropriate.
