fix(diffusers): auto-detect CUDA instead of defaulting to CPU (#11891)

The device fell back to CPU unless the model config set cuda: true,
while MPS right below was auto-detected — GPU hosts silently rendered
on CPU for any gallery entry missing the flag. Use CUDA whenever torch
reports it available (ROCm builds included), keep cuda: true as an
explicit force, and allow pinning with the device: model option (e.g.
options: ["device:cpu"]). Gallery entries stay untouched.
