The encoder cache needs to know the position of images in the input
stream so that it knows when to delete them. Previously images didn't
have a position, so we implied one by breaking batches before an
image and then assuming the image was in the first position. However,
multimodal objects are now given explicit positions in the input
stream, so we can use that instead.

Breaking batches was also a way to simulate a cross attention mask
for mllama. However, given that it only supports a single sequence
and a single image, this mask doesn't serve any real purpose.
Removing the batch break does not appear to affect the quality of
the output.

Most of this is simply moving the input data structures to a new
package to avoid import cycles.
