Description

Please add "logprobs" params for vLLM integration, and also the ability to pass the param from OpenAI compatible API.

Refer to "logprobs" param in https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/main/vllm/sampling_params.py, vLLM supports "logprobs" params to output logprobs of the most likely possible generations, similar to OpenAI API. This function is necessary for classification tasks usually with a score threshold.

Research direction

Start by tracing the OpenAI-compatible API request path into the vLLM integration, using vLLM's sampling_params.py as the parameter reference. Confirm how request parameters are forwarded and define done as accepting logprobs and returning the corresponding generation log probabilities for classification use cases.
