fix(hub): import create_repo from huggingface_hub (transformers dropped the passthrough)

[Anai-Guo]

Problem

On the latest transformers (main), import gptqmodel raises:

AttributeError: module 'transformers.utils.hub' has no attribute 'create_repo'

gptqmodel/utils/hub.py aliases create_repo = transformers_hub.create_repo, but recent transformers dropped the create_repo passthrough from transformers.utils.hub. This breaks import on a clean install against transformers main.

Fixes #2916.

Fix

transformers.utils.hub.create_repo was only ever a re-export of huggingface_hub.create_repo, so import it from the canonical source instead:

from huggingface_hub import create_repo

This is a 1:1 behavioral replacement (the module-level huggingface_hub.create_repo), and works across all transformers versions since huggingface_hub is already a hard dependency.

The _HF_API-bound helpers (list_repo_tree, list_repo_files, model_info, repo_info) are intentionally left sourced from transformers.utils.hub — line 23 relies on list_repo_tree.__self__ being a bound method of transformers' configured HfApi instance, so those must not change.

Verification

import ast; ast.parse(open("gptqmodel/utils/hub.py").read())  # OK
python -c "import gptqmodel"   # no longer raises on transformers main
