make float8 a1x128_w128x128 granularity serializeable

Summary:

Change the granularity for this scaling type from
`PerBlock((1, 128)), PerBlock((128, 128))` to `PerBlock([1, 128]), PerBlock([128, 128])`,
to get around the current limitation of config serialization not
supporting tuples.

Error when serializing tuples:
https://gist.github.com/vkuzo/ab4d6aec83cb98ad9417898d2c024a2c

Supporting tuples and lists would be a better long term fix, but the
workaround will unblock further work in the short term.

Test Plan:

```
pytest test/quantization/quantize_/workflows/float8/test_float8_tensor.py -s -x
```
