Update xFormers to use nightly triton (facebookresearch#532)

* Try updating to nightly triton

* Triton needs CMake for build

* Minor fixes

* Some bugfixes

* More fixes

* Disable FusedLinear tests

* Try installing zlib on CI

Also adds CMake just to be safe

* Move command up

* Try fix linking issue

* Try limiting number of CI jobs with my fork of Triton

* Disable triton-fmha on newer triton for now

* Bugfix

* Skip one test
