Qwen-Image-Edit: image editing model with text rendering

Qwen released Qwen-Image-Edit, a 20B image editing model built on Qwen-Image. It extends Qwen-Image's text rendering capability to editing tasks, and uses both Qwen2.5-VL (for visual semantic control) and the VAE Encoder (for visual appearance control) to support semantic and appearance editing.
