[AMD][Windows] Fix AttributeError: module 'torch.distributed' has no attribute 'is_initialized' on PyTorch with AMD cards on Windows

[m-gallus]

This change updates transformers version in requirements.txt
Newest version contains a check which prevents the error:

AttributeError: module 'torch.distributed' has no attribute 'is_initialized'

when used with PyTorch with ROCm on Windows build.

Could somebody enable the workflows for this PR please?

The fix is available in the newest release of transformers. I've updated the requirements.txt accordingly.
Awaiting your review @guill @Kosinkadink @christian-byrne.

Hey guys. Could somebody launch the workflows please?

[m-gallus]

Thank you for running the workflows. It seems like these have passed successfully. Are there any more tests/checks that need to go through to make sure this change can be accepted?

I talked with comfy just now, and I don't think we will be merging this PR. If someone were to run requirements.txt today on a clean install, they would get the latest version of transformers which would have this bug fix in there.

Typically, the version would only be bumped if a new model comes out that requires the features of that version. pytorch+ROCm isn't 'officially' supported on windows just yet, so we won't be bumping the version right now. I apologize that no one has looked into giving a proper response to you so far.
