models : fix the attn_factor for mistral3 graphs + improve consistency (#17945)

* models : fix the attn_factor for mistral3 graphs

* cont : rework attn_factor correction logic

* cont : make deepseek2 consistent

* cont : add TODO

* cont : special-case DSv2

* cont : revert Mistral 3 Large changes

* cont : fix DS2 to use the original attn_factor

* cont : minor comments
