        Add the remote NIXL agent and prepare the descriptors for reading cache
        blocks from remote.

        In particular, handle both homogeneous and heterogeneous TP. The former
        requires local rank_i to read from remote rank_i. 
        The latter, assuming D.world_size > P.world_size, requires that two or 
        more local TP worker share the xfer from a single TP worker.

        Here's an example:

        Considering the KV Caches, if P-Worker_i has cache size [2, num_blocksP, kv_heads, block_size, head_dim]  
        then D-Worker_j has [2, num_blocksD, kv_heads//tp_ratio, block_size, head_dim]. Mind the "HND" layout format.
        Assuming num_blocksD >= num_blocksP, D-Worker0 reads from P-Worker0 by preparing the kv_heads//tp_ratio 
        first heads from all the slots of all the blocks. D-Worker1 will do the same, but reading the second split
        along the kv_heads dimension, and so forth until "tp_ratio" D TP workers have pulled from P-Worker0.   
        
        Note that the above will also hold true for the homogeneous TP case, where tp_ratio evaluates to 1.

        Regarding MLA case, the cache is replicated across TP workers so the rank_offset will just always be 0
        so that the whole cache is shared by "tp_ratio" D TP workers.
