Code Review
This pull request addresses a bug in async scheduling where a batch containing a mix of requests with and without penalties could fail. The fix involves replacing placeholder -1 token IDs with a valid token ID to prevent errors in downstream operations. The approach is sound. I've suggested a minor improvement to make the fix more robust by using vocab_size as the replacement value, which is already used as a padding/ignore value, instead of 0.

#26467 fixed compatibility of penalties sampling parameters with async scheduling but has a flaw that it breaks in cases where there is a mix of requests with and without penalties in the batch, specifically if a request with a penalties param starts while a batch without penalties is already running.
This is a fix for that case.
