Convert IFRT's kString dtype to NumPy's variable length string dtype.

Previously, xla::ifrt::DType::kString would be translated to
NPY_OBJECT. NumPy 2.0 has introduced a variable length string type,
NPY_VSTRING, so convert to that when available. This is consistent
with xla::DtypeToIfRtDType, which performs the opposite translation.
