…rack varying/unreduced/reduced and remove `vma: frozenset` parameter. `aval.vma` will still exist as a property for backwards compatibility but `aval.manual_type.varying` is it's equivalent. **Why do this?** Currently, unreduced/reduced on PartitionSpec talk about both Explicit/Manual axes but this makes the implementation and mental model way too complex. So instead, `ManualType` will track all manual stuff like varying, unreduced and reduced and `PartitionSpec` will only talk about explicit sharded, unreduced and reduced. PiperOrigin-RevId: 885334667
