Issue #388: Transformers 5.0.0 can be auto-installed due to an open-ended lower bound, but older vLLM stacks used via verl can be incompatible (e.g. tokenizer attribute errors).

This PR adds an upper bound to prevent installing Transformers v5 until the dependency stack is confirmed compatible.

Fixes #388

Transformers 5.0 can break older vLLM stacks used by verl/rllm (e.g. missing tokenizer attrs). Add an upper bound to avoid incompatible installs.

Fixes rllm-org#388.
