Ryan Nguyen fc542144c4 [Feature] Fix guided decoding blocking bitmask memcpy (#12563)
**[Guided decoding performance optimization]** Sending the guided
decoding bitmask in xgrammar to the GPU
(`self.token_bitmask.to(scores.device)`) is a blocking operation that
prevents the CPU from pre-launching the sampler kernels. The CPU waits
until decode is complete, then copies the bitmask over. This PR changes
the operation to async via setting `non-blocking=True`.

(Current) The CPU is blocked on a `cudaStreamSynchronize` and only
pre-empts the sampling kernels after bitmask application. Below is the
Nsys profile for one decode phase from Llama 3.1 8B.

With the optimization, this is no longer the case:
