Add GIMM-VFI support (NeurIPS 2024) with single-pass arbitrary-timestep interpolation

Integrates GIMM-VFI alongside existing BIM/EMA/SGM models. Key feature: generates
all intermediate frames in one forward pass (no recursive 2x passes needed for 4x/8x).

- Vendor gimm_vfi_arch/ from kijai/ComfyUI-GIMM-VFI with device fixes
- Two variants: RAFT-based (~80MB) and FlowFormer-based (~123MB)
- Auto-download checkpoints from HuggingFace (Kijai/GIMM-VFI_safetensors)
- Three new nodes: Load GIMM-VFI Model, GIMM-VFI Interpolate, GIMM-VFI Segment Interpolate
- single_pass toggle: True=arbitrary timestep (default), False=recursive like other models
- ds_factor parameter for high-res input downscaling
