[Misc] Warn if the vLLM version can't be retrieved

[alex-jw-brooks]

There are a few checks that vLLM runs when inferring the platform that rely on inspecting the version of the vLLM package (i.e., via importlib.metadata.version). If the vLLM package isn't installed though, the import error will be swallowed, and it can result in the platform not being undetectable. There are a few situations in which this could happen, e.g., running vLLM in a dev environment where the source was been cloned & shared objects were copied from a release, but the project is just on the python path instead of installed into site packages.

This PR wraps the calls to version("vllm") to warn if a PackageNotFoundError is thrown to try to help make it more clear if this is the cause of platform resolution failing, e.g.,

WARNING 02-18 22:05:50 __init__.py:26] The vLLM package was not found, so its version could not be inspected. This may cause platform detection to fail.
WARNING 02-18 22:05:50 __init__.py:26] The vLLM package was not found, so its version could not be inspected. This may cause platform detection to fail.
WARNING 02-18 22:05:50 __init__.py:26] The vLLM package was not found, so its version could not be inspected. This may cause platform detection to fail.
INFO 02-18 22:05:50 __init__.py:210] No platform detected, vLLM is running on UnspecifiedPlatform

👋 Hi! Thank you for contributing to the vLLM project.

💬 Join our developer Slack at https://slack.vllm.ai to discuss your PR in #pr-reviews, coordinate on features in #feat- channels, or join special interest groups in #sig- channels.

Just a reminder: PRs would not trigger full CI run by default. Instead, it would only run fastcheck CI which starts running only a small and essential subset of CI tests to quickly catch errors. You can run other CI tests on top of those by going to your fastcheck build on Buildkite UI (linked in the PR checks section) and unblock them. If you do not have permission to unblock, ping simon-mo or khluu to add you in our Buildkite org.

Once the PR is approved and ready to go, your PR reviewer(s) can run CI to test the changes comprehensively before merging.

To run CI, PR reviewers can either: Add ready label to the PR or enable auto-merge.
