Update fp8_cast_bf16.py

Increased Clarity: Added more comments and detailed docstrings to improve clarity and maintainability.
Efficient Dictionary Comprehension: Used dictionary comprehension to filter out None values in new_state_dict.
Safe Dictionary Modification: Used pop with a default value to safely remove keys from the dictionary without raising exceptions.
Consistent Type Hinting: Enhanced type hints for better clarity and consistency.
