Needs more testing but good enough for now. I get the same results with this as with `vllm serve`.

Engine, `tio` support and docs.

Proof of concept / experimental.

- Setup venv

```
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate
uv pip install pip
uv pip install sgl-kernel --force-reinstall --no-deps
uv pip install "sglang[all]==0.4.2" --find-links https://flashinfer.ai/whl/cu124/torch2.4/flashinfer/
```

- Build: `cargo build --release --features sglang`

- Run single node (make sure you're in the venv): `./tio out=sglang ~/llm_models/my_model`

- Run Deepseek multi-gpu / multi-node:

Node 1:
```
tio in=http out=sglang --model-path ~/llm_models/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-70B/ --tensor-parallel-size 8 --num-nodes 2 --node-rank 0 --dist-init-addr 10.217.98.122:9876
```

Node 2:
```
tio in=none out=sglang --model-path ~/llm_models/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-70B/ --tensor-parallel-size 8 --num-nodes 2 --node-rank 1 --dist-init-addr 10.217.98.122:9876
```

Add backend type `EngineConfig::StaticCore` that wraps the engine in a preprocessor (prompt templating and tokenization).

Add example engine `echo_core` (`out=echo_core`) which takes and returns tokens. A nice side effect is that it echos the full prompt template with system prompt, whereas `echo_full` echos only user prompt.
