fix token state json and mistral tokenizer issue (#3522) [skip ci]

* fix token state json and mistral tokenizer issue

* centralize constants

* forgot to commit constants file

* Fix weakref in pickling relora state dict

* make curl a bit quieter so it doesn't log 2K lines

* fix path traversal for olmoe test

* more test fixes that weren't flagged previously

* chore: lint

* skip tests that fail b/c of OutOfResources

* scattermoe as slow tests

* update fbgemm-genai for torch 2.10
