* bf16

* tests

* gpt-oss

* enable gptoss for engine

* rough estimate

* convert to mxfp4

* handle safetensors U8

* clamp glu/linear

* update tokenizer

* MXFP4 support

This implements the Open Compute Microscaling (MX) FP4 format
as a tensor type with backend implementations focusing
on mulmat and mulmatid on CPU, CUDA, and Metal.

* Unit tests for MXFP4 support

This exercises various operations and shapes on both CPU and GPU (if detected
on the system)

* cuda graph

* unit test adjustments

* cuda: optimize memory access

Read 4 bytes at a time (8 elements) when performing mul_mat_vec_mxfp4

* mac: fix crash on old macos versions

cblas_sgemm is only supported on v13.3 and up, however bf16 is
only supported on v14+ so we were falling back to ggml-blas and
crashing on bf16 tensors.  Checking for the function being null
seems to be the simplest way to condittionally avoid registering the
backend.

* server: Minimum context length for gptoss

This model requires a minimum context length of 8192 to function
effectively. Users can set higher values through all normal mechanisms
but lower values will be silently reset.

* ggml: Multiply by numParallel for gptoss sliding window

When computing the graph size estimate, the context size is already
multiplied by numParallel so estimates reflect that. However, since
sliding window models use a smaller, fixed context size, they need
to manually take numParallel into account.

* gpt-oss integration

includes harmony parser and thinking levels, etc.

* fix sync

* fix tests

* fix lint

Prior to performing attention, we need to permute query, key
and value. Currently we call Contiguous after each of these
permutations, which is correct but expensive. Avoiding the
3 calls to Contiguous increases performance by over 20%.

The permutations of query and key do not violate the continuity
rules for mulmat and the Contiguous call can be simply removed.

Value requires a different permutation and does require Contiguous.
However, we can use the copy into the cache as a way to perform this
without further overhead.

To support this and avoid unexpected tensor shapes that are seen by
models, we need tighter integration between attention, cache
and backend. Future optimization will also likely need this structure
 - for example, flash attention has special padding requirements in
the cache and other backends may have their own needs.

This further contains the operations that go into attention so that
these and other optimizations can be handled transparently. Models
that have special requirements for attention can still implement
their own version of it.

There are two benefits to doing this:
 - Provide a library function that models can use, reducing code for
   each model implementation
 - Enables a single place to drop in optimized implementations of
   attention based on the backend or other factors. One is provided for
   GGML.

On CUDA this improves token generation rate by about 3%. It does not
have a significant effect on Metal.

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
