- Stop advertising a model when it's last instance stops. Previously was when any instance stops.
- Faster locks on model manager.
- Move discovery code out of http, as it is used by all inputs.

We can now do this:

- Node 1:

```
dynamo-run in=http out=dyn
```

- Node 2 and 3, two instances of component 'backend' in the nemotron_ultra pipeline:

```
dynamo-run in=dyn://nemotron_ultra.backend.generate out=vllm /data/models/NemotronUltra
```

- Node 4 and 5, two instances of the 'backend' component in nemotron_super pipeline:

```
dynamo-run in=dyn://nemotron_super.backend.generate out=vllm /data/models/NemotronSuper
```

The ingress node will discover all four instances and route correctly. We have been planning for this for a long time now.

As part of this auto-discovery is now always `out=dyn`, with no extra URL parts. Previously it could only route to a single pipeline.

Also:
- Refactor endpoint / instance naming now that I understand them
- Fix removing models when their instance stops.

Implements OpenAI embeddings (interface only).

- Adds ModelType::Embedding
- Adds OpenAI embedding request/response structs
- Adds support for embedding model discovery

The Python bindings use the default value for RouterMode. Previously that was Random (good), but now it became None (bad).

Remove the option and clean up the duplicate RouterMode. I was trying to avoid putting the `KV` enum in dynamo-runtime. Turns out adding those two characters gives us a healthy simplification, and restores the old default router value.

Also clean up two noisy log messages when waiting for KV routing metrics to start in worker.

The runtime library already provides a from_current method that creates and returns a Runtime object initialized with the current Tokio runtime handle. Since components do not use the runtime library directly but access it through the worker, the worker needs to be updated to create itself using a Runtime instance derived from the current Tokio runtime.
This PR updates the http component and the worker to use the existing Tokio runtime instead of creating a new one. Other components can be similarly updated to run using the existing runtime.

Router:
```
dynamo-run in=http out=dyn://dynamo.endpoint.generate --router-mode kv
```

Worker (* N):
```
dynamo-run in=dyn://dynamo.endpoint.generate out=vllm /data/llms/Qwen/Qwen3-4B
```

You need patched vllm and the C bindings `.so`. Full docs in the updated guide: `docs/guides/dynamo_run.md`.

This gives us a pure-Rust ingress node: OpenAI compliant HTTP server + Pre-processor + KV-aware router.

In a distributed system we don't know if the remote workers need pre-processing done ingress-side or not. Previously Client required us to decide this before discovering the remote endpoints, which was fine because pre-processing was worker-side.

As part of moving pre-processing back to ingress-side we need to split this into two steps:
- Client discovers the endpoints, and (later PR) will fetch their Model Deployment Card.
- PushRouter will use the Model Deployment Card to decide if they need pre-processing or not, which affects the types of the generic parameters.

- Replace custom StatsWithData object with library-defined Metrics object
- Update parsing logic to account for change to Metrics.decode()

Adds `@dynamo_worker(static = True)` to create a static worker which has a predictable name and hence does not require discovery or `etcd` to be running. There can only be a single static worker per namespace / component / endpoint trio.

This contrasts with the default dynamic `dynamo_worker` endpoints we have now, which get a unique random name (based on namespace/component/endpoint), and are discovered by ingress components using etcd.

Also change the hello_world example to use `dynamo_worker(static = True)` so that it is exercised and demonstrated somewhere.

For NIM.

This makes the Rust parts all use ring / rustls library instead of local install of openssl. It's a step on the journey to being statically linked.

Pieces:
- `tokenizers` and `mistralrs` now support rustls (mistralrs by default, tokenizers with feature flag).
- Move shared dependencies up into workspace
- New `rand` crate has some renames for future rust
- Ensure the dependency doesn't creep back in by enforcing it with cargo deny.
