Research direction

Search under src/diffusers/pipelines/ for remaining pipeline docstring examples containing torch_dtype=. Update those occurrences to dtype=, then repeat the search to confirm no deprecated spelling remains and the examples match the current API.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Following the torch_dtype → dtype migration, some pipeline docstring examples still use the deprecated torch_dtype= spelling.

This issue tracks updating the remaining occurrences under src/diffusers/pipelines/ to dtype= for consistency with the current API.
