[Bugfix][IPEX] Add VLLM_CPU_MOE_PREPACK to allow disabling MoE prepack when CPU does not support it

docs/source/getting_started/installation/cpu.md

@@ -195,6 +195,7 @@ vLLM CPU backend supports the following vLLM features:
 
 - `VLLM_CPU_KVCACHE_SPACE`: specify the KV Cache size (e.g, `VLLM_CPU_KVCACHE_SPACE=40` means 40 GB space for KV cache), larger setting will allow vLLM running more requests in parallel. This parameter should be set based on the hardware configuration and memory management pattern of users.
 - `VLLM_CPU_OMP_THREADS_BIND`: specify the CPU cores dedicated to the OpenMP threads. For example, `VLLM_CPU_OMP_THREADS_BIND=0-31` means there will be 32 OpenMP threads bound on 0-31 CPU cores. `VLLM_CPU_OMP_THREADS_BIND=0-31|32-63` means there will be 2 tensor parallel processes, 32 OpenMP threads of rank0 are bound on 0-31 CPU cores, and the OpenMP threads of rank1 are bound on 32-63 CPU cores.
+- `VLLM_CPU_MOE_PREPACK`: whether to use prepack for MoE layer. This will be passed to `ipex.llm.modules.GatedMLPMOE`. Default is `1` (True). On unsupported CPUs, you might need to set this to `0` (False).
