[Request] Remove pytorch from the project requirements

[oobabooga]

PyTorch cannot be effectively managed through a requirements.txt due to the need for specific channels.

After adding the hqq requirement to text-generation-webui, unwanted pytorch updates happened after pip install -r requirements.txt: oobabooga/text-generation-webui#4993. For this reason I had to remove hqq from the requirements.

I think that it would be best to remove PyTorch from

hqq/setup.py

Line 12 in bb422c9

install_requires=['numpy>=1.24.4','tqdm>=4.64.1', 'torch>=2.1.1', 'huggingface_hub', 'accelerate', 'timm', 'transformers>=4.36.1', 'termcolor'], #add vllm/langchain?

and just mention the minimum PyTorch version in the README, or at least not specify the minimum version.

@oobabooga sure, it makes sense to remove it because it also causes problems with CUDA versions and VLLM.
Can you try now? pip should install 0.1.1.post1 which doesn't include Pytorch in the dependencies.

That seems to have done the trick, thank you :) oobabooga/text-generation-webui@f0f6d9b
