Mistral is a popular research lab making open source models. This updates
the forward pass of llama architecture models to support both llama models
and mistral models by accounting for additional metadata present in mistral
models, and finding the correct dimensions for the output projection.

Debug logging of every token has previously caused test timeouts
on slower machines.

We sometimes tokenize partial strings. For example, with
multimodal inputs, we split the input string around the images
and then tokenize each piece. In these cases, we should only add
the special tokens on the first piece.

Special tokens are currently read as uint32 from the model metadata.
However, all other parts of the system (including the tokenizer) use
int32 to represent tokens so it is impossible to represent the high
portion of the unsigned range. For consistency and to avoid casts,
we should just use int32 everywhere.

feat: add new Ollama engine using ggml through cgo

This change introduces a new way to run pretrained models. It introduces 3 high level interfaces and a bunch of smaller helper interfaces to facilitate this.

- `model.Model` defines the interface for a model architecture. Models such as `llama` and `mllama`, which are provided as examples, can implement the model's forward propagation in the `Forward` method. This method will be called to generate completions. This interface can be found in `model/model.go`
- `ml.Backend` defines the interface for a backend tensor library, in this case `ggml`. Among other things, a Backend is responsible for loading a pretrained model into hardware (GPU, CPU, etc) and providing an interface for Models to access loaded tensors. This interface can be found in `ml/backend.go`
- `ml.Tensor` defines the interface for a tensor and tensor operations

This is the first implementation of the new engine. Follow up PRs will implement more features:

- non-greedy sampling (#8410)
- integration with Ollama and KV caching (#8301)
- more model support (#9080) with more coming soon
