Add HQQ support (#605)

* Add HQQ support

* use use_hqq flag in AffineQuantizedTensor.from_float + move hqq core to quantization api

* move hqq quantization to quant_primitives

* update example with mutliple nbits

* clean-up imports in affine_quantized_tensor

* add hqq to quant_api apply_int4_weight_only_quant

* add random seed

* add unittest

* replace from_float() with to_affine_quantized

* add _ to private functions

* add quantize_affine_hqq to __all__

* separate xnbit tests + check device

* add torch version for tensorcore dtype

* fix torch 2.4 tensorcore dtype

* fix core.py import

* skip assertion error in test_dynamic_quant_per_channel_numerics_cuda
