fix: [nvbugs/5066257] serialization improvments

[coldwaterq]

Description

Add an approve list into the pickle deserialization process to reduce the attack surface of using pickle to a subset of supported objects.

Test Coverage

if a new object is added this PR will cause a ValueError to be raised that clearly states what module is not supported that is being serialized/deserialized.
Fully utilizing the zmq interfaces would test this code.

Thanks a lot for making this PR! Several general comments:

1. Could you please follow https://github.com/NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md to sign your commits and run pre-commit hook.
2. Please add the complicated dataclass serialization unit test we discussed offline to test_executor.py. Also would be good to have additional tests for serailization.py. I can trigger a pipeline test after you added the tests to see if there is any test failure.

@kaiyux This is the "approved list approach" I discussed with you offline. Let me know your thoughts.

@yibinl-nvidia I fixed the DCO and ran the pre-commit hooks, added the tests, and made some improvements based on the comments. let me know if there is anything else I should address.

I did a micro-benchmark comparing the custom serialization and deserialization against Pickle. The first result is based on a simple GenerationResult object (same one as in the test_executor.py) approximately 2 KB in size. The second result focused on benchmarking message with various size. This shows that the new approach introduces trivial μs-level of perf degradation.

Serialization and Deserialization Performance Results for GenerationRequest with 10000 iterations:
Pickle (avg/min/max): 199.038μs / 186.559μs / 1271.870μs
Custom (avg/min/max): 204.601μs / 192.718μs / 363.867μs
Average time difference: 5.56 μs

Size Comparison:
Pickle size: 1920 bytes
Custom size: 1920 bytes
Size ratio (custom/pickle): 1.00x

Serialization Performance Across Different Message Sizes:
Size            Pickle Avg (μs)         Custom Avg (μs)         Diff (μs)       Size Ratio

The last commit should resolve the issue reported by blossom.

the tests that were failed in the basic bot run should be fixed with those new commits.
