What does this PR do?

This PR fixes how the VarBuilder loading is being handled for GTEModel since some models such as Alibaba-NLP/gte-multilingual-base require custom code (available at https://huggingface.co/Alibaba-NLP/new-impl) using the base_model_prefix="new" as per this line, meaning that the safetensors weights are not stored as e.g. embeddings.word_embeddings like in other variants of GTE as e.g. Alibaba-NLP/gte-base-en-v1.5, but as new.embeddings.word_embeddings.

Fixes #460
Fixes #471

Note

Some of the changes proposed in this PR are pretty specific to some of the Alibaba NLP model variants and should or could be fixed within the repositories, but since those are widely used e.g. Alibaba-NLP/gte-multilingual-base has over 500k monthly downloads on the Hub, being on the top 100 models on the MTEB Leaderboard, and showing as text-embeddings-inference compatible on the Hub; we could ship this as a tiny QoL improvement causing less friction when deploying TEI models from the Hub (it can now be deployed but setting refs/pr/7 as the revision as e.g. text-embeddings-router --model-id Alibaba-NLP/gte-multilingual-base --port 8081).

WDYT @OlivierDehaene? Thanks in advance!

See below the following deployments:

Hi, was wondering when this would be supported? This blocks any variant of GTE that uses new.XYZ

Hey, so AFAIK this may have already been solved in main as of the recent #519 merge, cc @Narsil
