This CL changes `shard_arg_handlers` to be batched, in that it now receives a list of objects and a list of shardings and returns a list of array. This makes it possible to batch backend calls whenever it's beneficial to do so. Based on the above, the batched shard arg for arrays leverages the newly added `xla::ifrt::Client::CopyArrays()` (https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/pull/69096) to make bulk copy cheaper in some backend implementations. Since `Client::CopyArrays()` requires batched arrays to have the same set of source/destination devices, `PyArray::BatchedCopyToDeviceWithSharding()` internally groups arrays by their source/destination devices and memory kinds. The grouping is pushed all the way to C++ for performance in case we have lots of arrays. PiperOrigin-RevId: 643097852
