v0.7.0

Highlights

• vLLM's V1 engine is ready for testing! This is a rewritten engine designed for performance and architectural simplicity. You can turn it on by setting environment variable VLLM_USE_V1=1. See our blog for more details. (44 commits).
• New methods (LLM.sleep, LLM.wake_up, LLM.collective_rpc, LLM.reset_prefix_cache) in vLLM for the post training frameworks! (#12361, #12084, #12284).
• torch.compile is now fully integrated in vLLM, and enabled by default in V1. You can turn it on via -O3 engine parameter. (#11614, #12243, #12043, #12191, #11677, #12182, #12246).
