[Transformers v5] Vendor HCXVisionConfig for compatibility

[HanFa]

Purpose

Vendor the HyperCLOVAX Vision config into vLLM to fix transformers v5 compatibility.

The upstream remote code config does not handle empty initialization (text_config=None), which breaks transformers v5's @strict config validation (huggingface/transformers#41250).

Root cause: HCXVisionConfig.__init__ only sets self.text_config when text_config is not None. When transformers v5 creates an empty config for validation/diffing, get_text_config() crashes with AttributeError.

Fix: Vendor the config with self.text_config = None always initialized, and get_text_config() falling back to self when text_config is None.

Fixes: #38387

TODO: Remove vendored config once HCXVision is upstreamed to transformers. @bigshanedogg is also fixing the remote code on HF Hub in parallel.

Code Review

This pull request introduces the HCXVisionConfig class to support HyperCLOVA X VLM models, specifically addressing initialization issues with transformers v5. The changes include updating configuration mappings and adding the new config class with logic to handle text and vision sub-configs. A review comment identifies a logic error in the init method where a fallback for hidden_size is unreachable because the key is removed during attribute remapping; it is recommended to access the attribute directly from the instantiated text configuration object.

[gemini-code-assist]

The current logic for setting self.hidden_size is a bit confusing. The fallback text_config.get("n_embd") is ineffective because the n_embd key is removed from the text_config dictionary in the preceding loop that remaps attribute names.

A more robust and clearer approach is to retrieve hidden_size from the instantiated self.text_config object. This ensures that the correct value is used, including any defaults defined in the text model's configuration.

            self.hidden_size = self.text_config.hidden_size
