Check for NULL return values from llama.cpp in more places and
convert them into Go errors, which should make debugging easier
in the future rather than having hidden surprises in our data
structures.

Mllama has large embeddings (100 MB per image) and each embedding is
represented as 1 token when passed to llama.cpp. Batches are pre-
allocated for the size of the tokens times the batch size, so this
results in allocations of over 50 GB at the default batch size.
On some systems, these mallocs will fail.

Since an image is represented as a single token and mllama doesn't
support more than 1 image per request, we only need to allocate a
batch size of 1, which is much more reasonable. In addition, for
non-multimodal models, we don't need to allocate the embedding
batches at all.

Fixes #7464

Currently if an input has embeddings at any point then we will set
cross attention to true from the beginning. This means that any
tokens before the embeddings are sent will incorrectly have cross
attention layers applied.

This only sets cross attention when we have an embedding, either
previously in this sequence or in the cache. It also makes cross
attention capable of supporting parallelism at the runner level,
though the mllama implementation doesn't support that yet.

-Update mllama to take the cross attention state as embeddings in
a batch, more similar to how Llava handles it. This improves
integration with the input cache.
-Pass locations in a prompt for embeddings using tags similar to Llava.
-Abstract interface to vision models so the main runner accesses Clip
and Mllama similarly
