This PR implements the worker which contains the draft model in speculative decoding. See #2188 and the speculative decoding open sourcing plan for more info. This is contributed by Anyscale.
The MultiStepWorker extends the vanilla Worker class and augments
execute_model
to invoke the underlying model multiple times in a single scheduling iteration. To work end-to-end in vLLM, it requires that the scheduler support scheduling >1 token per scheduling iteration. That will come in a future PR.
