What does this PR do?

Fixes #31166 (comment). Previously, we were performing three shape operations on the q_proj tensor:

  1. Reshape to (bsz, tgt_len, num_heads, head_dim)
  2. Transpose to (bsz, num_heads, tgt_len, head_dim)
  3. Transpose to (bsz, tgt_len, num_heads, head_dim)

Clearly 2 and 3 are not required! This PR fixes the modelling code accordingly.

Thanks!

Could you check for similar patterns in the library in FA2, it's possible we're extra transposing all over the place

The pattern appears in most LLaMA-style attention modules, but here the back-to-back transpose operations are required, since there's a step in between the transpose ops:

  1. Reshape to (bsz, tgt_len, num_heads, head_dim)
  2. Transpose to (bsz, num_heads, tgt_len, head_dim)
  3. Apply rotary pos embeddings (note that this requires the shape produced from 2)
  4. Transpose to (bsz, tgt_len, num_heads, head_dim)

This leaves only two additional models where there are redundant transpose ops: Idefics2 and Jamba, changes for which I've pushed to the PR.
