Add 16A8W quantization configuration utility for ARM backend

[Ninja91]

Stack from ghstack (oldest at bottom):

• (to be filled)

This diff implements a 16A8W (16-bit activations, 8-bit weights) quantization configuration utility for the ExecutorTorch ARM backend, following the feedback from D79746479.

Key Changes

1. New Quantization Configuration Function

• Add get_16a8w_quantization_config() in fbcode/executorch/backends/arm/quantizer/arm_quantizer.py
• Provides 16-bit activations with HistogramObserver (better precision than 8A8W)
• Maintains 8-bit weights with MinMaxObserver/PerChannelMinMaxObserver (memory efficient)
• Technically supported by TOSA through EXT-INT16 extension/profile

Benefits

• Better Precision: 16-bit activations provide higher precision than 8-bit. Useful for carrying precision for recurring neural nets.
