Bringing Nunchaku 4-bit Diffusion Inference to Diffusers

Nunchaku is a quantization engine for diffusion transformers that reduces memory usage and improves denoising latency by quantizing both weights and activations, supporting architecture-agnostic quantization. It enables efficient execution on consumer hardware and provides a streamlined workflow for model developers, with pre-quantized checkpoints and tools like `diffuse-compressor` to facilitate quantizing new architectures. The engine is now natively supported in Diffusers, allowing developers to quantize and publish models, with detailed documentation available in integration PRs and the SVDQuant paper.
