### Description
Introduces the `get_qdq_config()` function to get a quantization
configuration for a full integer QDQ model. This function provides an
easier way of specifying commonly used options and sets convenient
defaults. Specifically:
- Instead of requiring the user to pass a dictionary of `extra_options`,
the new interface adds function parameters for common settings:
- All calibrator settings
- Whether activations/weights are symmetric
- Whether to keep or fuse relu/clip into Q
- Minimum real range for quantization
- Dictionary of tensor quantization overrides.
- Automatically scans the input floating-point model and fills out the
operator types to quantize. Otherwise, only a limited number of operator
types would be quantized by default.
- Detects if the input model uses external data. If so, ensures that the
generated QDQ model also uses external data.
- Detects if the model will use newly introduced quantization types
(int4/int16) with an older opset. If so, forces the use of the
`com.microsoft` domain for Q/DQ ops, which support all types.
- Automatically enables the "extra option" called
`ForceQuantizeNoInputCheck` to ensure data movement operators (e.g.,
Transpose) are always quantized.
- User can pass a function to indicate which nodes to exclude from
quantization.
- The user can still pass their own `extra_options` to override any of
the above if necessary.
```python
from onnxruntime.quantization import get_int_qdq_config, quantize # , ...
# Get QDQ configuration
qdq_config = get_int_qdq_config(
float_model,
data_reader,
calibrate_method=CalibrationMethod.Percentile,
calibrate_args={"percentile": 99.98}, # Converted to extra_options
activation_type=QuantType.QUInt8,
weight_type=QuantType.QInt8,
per_channel=True,
nodes_to_exclude=["Mul"], # Could also be a function. Ex: `lambda model, node: node.op_type == "Softmax"`
# Other options converted to extra_options:
min_real_range=0.0001,
keep_removable_activations=True,
activation_symmetric=True,
weight_symmetric=True,
)
# Quantize model
quantize(float_model_path, qdq_model_path, qdq_config)
```
### Motivation and Context
Need a version of `get_qnn_qdq_config()` that is not EP-specific.

ONNX Runtime is a cross-platform inference and training machine-learning accelerator.
ONNX Runtime inference can enable faster customer experiences and lower costs, supporting models from deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch and TensorFlow/Keras as well as classical machine learning libraries such as scikit-learn, LightGBM, XGBoost, etc. ONNX Runtime is compatible with different hardware, drivers, and operating systems, and provides optimal performance by leveraging hardware accelerators where applicable alongside graph optimizations and transforms.
