Enable TruncationStrategy override for pipelines (#9432)

* Enable TruncationStrategy override for pipelines

* Update isort.

* Fixing test

* Fixing text_generation pipeline.

* Using same DummyTok as other PR  for easier merge later.

* Some more import guards.

* Remove bogus file.

* Do not pass `generate_kwargs` to `_parse_and_tokenize`.
@patrickvonplaten

* Removed DummyTok.

* Doc quality.
