model: Add Kimi-K2.5 support (#19170)

* Move dequant_model to after the text_config merge
Add new kimi-k2.5 keys to mtmd convert
Update V_MMPROJ tensor mapping for new mm_projector.proj keys
Update V_M_IMP_NORM for new mm_projector.pre_norm key

* Fix a couple of oversights

* Add image support for Kimi-K2.5

* Revert changes to KimiVLForConditionalGeneration

* Fix an assert crash

* Fix permute swapping w / h on accident

* Kimi-K2.5: Use merged QKV for vision

* Kimi-K2.5: pre-convert vision QK to use build_rope_2d

* Kimi-K2.5: support non-interleaved rope for vision

* Kimi-K2.5: fix min / max pixel

* Kimi-K2.5: remove v/o permutes, unnecessary

* Kimi-K2.5: update permute name to match

* Update convert_hf_to_gguf.py
