Code Review

This pull request is a refactoring that cleans up several unused and deprecated sharding managers: FSDPVLLMShardingManager, MegatronSGLangShardingManager, and MegatronVLLMShardingManager. The corresponding files have been removed, and documentation has been updated to reflect these changes. The changes are straightforward and appear to be correct. I have not found any remaining references to the removed components in the provided code context. The PR contributes to better code maintainability by removing obsolete code.
