Use it from ProcesGroupNCCL `torch/csrc/cuda/nccl.cpp` is compiled as part of `torch_cuda` library and thus by calling this function from ProcessGroupNCCCL.cpp it avoids linking 2nd instance of libnccl.a into `torch_python` Fixes #42517 [ghstack-poisoned]

Summary: Pull Request resolved: pytorch#45900 Use `torch:cuda::nccl:all2all` from `ProcesGroupNCCL.cpp` Fixes pytorch#42517 Here is a NCCL dependency graph: ``` libnccl.a --> libtorch_cuda.so ---> libtorch_python.so | ^ | | --------> libc10d.a ----------------- ``` When static library is linked into a dynamic library or an executable, linker is removes all unused/duplicate symbols from that library, unless `-whole-archive` option is used. Before pytorch#42514 all nccl call made from `ProcessGroupNCCL.cpp` were also made from `torch/csrc/cuda/nccl.cpp`, which is compiled as part of `libtorch_cuda.so` But adding `ncclSend`|`ncclRecv` to ProcesGroupNCCL.cpp forced linker to embed those into `libtorch_python.so`, which also resulted in linking other dependent symbols into the library. This PR adds `nccl[Send|Recv]` call to `torch_cuda.so` by implementing `all2all` in `torch_cuda` and thus avoids double linking the static library. More involved, but prone solution, would be to use wrappers exported in `torch::cuda::nccl` namespace, instead of making direct NCCL API calls.

Here is a NCCL dependency graph:
When static library is linked into a dynamic library or an executable, linker is removes all unused/duplicate symbols from that library, unless
-whole-archiveoption is used. Before #42514 all nccl call made fromProcessGroupNCCL.cppwere also made fromtorch/csrc/cuda/nccl.cpp, which is compiled as part oflibtorch_cuda.soBut adding
