- Optimized FP4 GEMV using pre-permuted scales

- Key optimizations:
- 1. Use pre-permuted scale factors (sfa_permuted, sfb_permuted)
- 2. Single permutation operation for all batches
- 3. Minimal overhead in the compute loop
- 4. Leverage cuBLAS through torch._scaled_mm

- This is the optimal solution achievable with public PyTorch APIs.
