NNX migration: NNX utils

[xibinliu]

Description

Add utils to manipulate the NNX shardings with abstract state of a model
also add unit tests for the utils
Extract mesh creation function to maxtext_utils.get_mesh_from_config()
also add unit tests for this func
Note:
flax v0.12 has DeprecationWarning in multiple places:

• DeprecationWarning: '.value' access is now deprecated. Use variable.get_value() or variable[...] (for [Array]).
• DeprecationWarning: 'VariableState' was removed, this is just an alias to 'Variable'. Plase use 'Variable' directly instead.
  But since the code needs to work with post-training, which currently requires flax v0.11, we didn't change code for these warnings.

Tests

Since there is minor change in the create_nnx_model() code, verified the SFT in single node with stable dependencies and it passed.
