Pull request: [Qwen2.5-VL] Fix torch.finfo() TypeError for integer attention_mask_tensor

What does this PR do?
This PR fixes a critical TypeError in the Qwen2.5-VL model that occurs when processing attention masks with integer dtypes. The error torch.finfo() requires a floating point input type was preventing model inference when using frameworks like Unsloth.
Problem
The issue occurs in modeling_qwen2_5_vl.py at line 1292 where torch.finfo() is called on attention mask tensors that may have integer dtypes:
pythonattention_mask_tensor = attention_mask_tensor / torch.finfo(attention_mask_tensor.dtype).min
Since torch.finfo() only supports floating-point types, this crashes when the attention mask tensor has an integer dtype.
Solution
Added dtype checking to use the appropriate function:

torch.iinfo() for integer dtypes
torch.finfo() for floating-point dtypes

This maintains backward compatibility while fixing the crash for integer attention masks.
Impact

✅ Fixes model crashes during vision inference with Unsloth
✅ Enables support for integer dtype attention masks
✅ Maintains existing functionality for float dtype tensors
✅ No breaking changes to existing code

Additional Testing Details

✅ Tested with integer attention mask dtypes (torch.int32, torch.int64)
✅ Tested with floating-point attention mask dtypes (torch.float16, torch.float32)
✅ Verified compatibility with Unsloth framework
✅ Confirmed no regression in existing Qwen2.5-VL functionality
✅ Added unit tests covering both dtype paths

Who can review?
@amyeroberts @qubvel - This is a vision model fix for Qwen2.5-VL dtype compatibility
Priority: High - This is a blocking issue that prevents model inference in common usage scenarios with Unsloth and other frameworks that may use integer attention masks.
Backward Compatibility: ✅ Fully backward compatible - no changes to existing API or behavior for floating-point tensors.
