Support multiple Lora adapter replicas

[Jeffwan]

🚀 Feature Description and Motivation

In the initial version, to simplify the the model adapter autoscaling, we determine to support only 1 replica in the CRD. Technically, we should support multiple replicas to allow higher throughput.

Use Case

In my production deployment, it need higher throughput and I want multiple lora to be deployed in the environments.

Proposed Solution

1. Enable replicas in the lora crd
2. Make sure the scheduling algorithm can correctly schedule the lora. We need to handle some special cases like num of loras <= num of pods. It's meaningless to support > 1 loras on single pod.
3. (Optional) support lora autoscaling

It's meaningless to support > 1 loras on single pod.

Quick q: did you mean support "< 1 loras on single pod"?

[Jeffwan]

@xieus this is a constraints on the scheduling. single lora model adapter can be scheduled to the pod no more than 1 replica. 2 replicas on single pod won't be helpful from the throughput perspective

[Jeffwan]

#205 becomes a large change and I notice there're some edge cases needs to cover. I will postpone this feature to rc3.

[Jeffwan]

It takes some time to refactor the current code base to improve the extensibility for such changes. I already move some refactor codes changes from #205 to #260 . This would be moved to v0.2.0

[Jeffwan]

move to later release due to limited times.
