The Transformers Library: standardizing model definitions

Transformers is evolving toward a standard model-definition library, aiming to be the pivot across frameworks so an architecture supported by transformers is available in the broader ecosystem. It now covers 300+ architectures with day-0 support and tight interoperability with inference engines (vLLM, SGLang, TGI) as well as llama.cpp and MLX, while simplifying model definitions to lower the barrier to contributions.
