Summary

Implement ConvertBatchNormToDepthwiseConvPass to handle standalone batch normalization operations that cannot be fused with preceding convolutions.

Fixes #11586

Key changes:

  • New pass converts standalone BatchNorm to equivalent 1x1 depthwise convolutions
  • Updated BatchNormConfig to support both fusable and standalone batch norms
  • Added pass to XNNPACKPassManager before existing fusion pass
  • Updated tests to expect successful partitioning of standalone batch norms

Uses mathematical equivalence:
conv_weight = bn_weight / sqrt(bn_var + eps)
conv_bias = bn_bias - bn_mean * conv_weight

Test plan

# test fused batch norm
python -m pytest backends/xnnpack/test/passes/test_batch_norm_fusion.py -v

# for standalone batch norm
python -m pytest backends/xnnpack/test/passes/test_batch_norm_to_depthwise_conv.py -v
