Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

With #4364, #4890, and #4714, Feast is aiming to support NLP/LLMs as a first class citizen.

Other NLP related frameworks offer default transformations (e.g., formatting data via docling, llamaparse) and formatting data for ease of use in LLMs.

This should also include adding an NLP specific Feature Server as suggested in #5090

Feast should support this natively through an add on. The benefit of this add-on would be to allow users to have default libraries that can be used in offline training and online serving.

    @franciscojavierarceo I dont have permissions to edit this issue. Could you add #5426 to sub-tasks as we did discuss on the slack thread (long time ago, but forgot to do it) ?
