Fix TPU compatibility for model tests

This commit resolves `BufferError` and assertion failures when running
tests on TPU for qwen3, densenet121, vit

Key changes:
- Fix DLPack BufferError: use np during JAX-to-PyTorch conversion (`torch.tensor(np.array(jax_array))`) to force data transfer from TPU to CPU host memory, bypassing DLPack transfer unsupported between TPU and PyTorch CPU.
- Enforce Float32 Precision: Explicitly cast JAX model weights to `float32` and set `jax_default_matmul_precision` to `float32`. Prevent implicit downcasting to `bfloat16` on TPU.

These changes ensure consistent test behavior across CPU and TPU environments.
