Note
Since QAI Hub July 2025 update, ONNX models are always downloaded as .zip files with external weights. Other formats (.tflite, .so, .bin) are downloaded directly. Reference: https://app.aihub.qualcomm.com/docs/hub/release_notes.html#released-july-14-2025
This function automatically extracts and converts ONNX zip files to single .onnx files with embedded weights. Non-ONNX models are returned as-is.
