Initial commit: tuned multi-model llama.cpp stack

- 5 models: SmolLM3-3B, Gemma4-E2B/E4B, Qwen3-4B, Qwen3.5-9B
- TurboQuant image (FORCE_MMQ): +6-11% free speed on Turing GPUs
- Bigctx profiles (-nkvo KV in RAM): 2-16x context gain
- turbo2 KV: 2x smaller, benchmarked against PPL quality gate
- Per-model env files with justified parameters
- kv_quant_test.sh + cpu_ctx_test.sh benchmark scripts
- docs/FINDINGS.md: surprises, pitfalls, recommendations
- docs/ARCHITECTURE.md: compose + test script design

# =============================================================================
# llama.cpp Automated Benchmark — Qwen3.5-9B on GTX 1650 Ti (4 GB VRAM)
#
# Runs for BOTH official llama.cpp and TurboQuant fork.
# VARIANT env var selects which KV type set to sweep:
# VARIANT=official → f16 q8_0 q5_0 q4_0 iq4_nl
# VARIANT=turboquant → f16 q8_0 iq4_nl turbo4 turbo3 turbo2
#
# Output: CSV + recommended .env per variant, plus a final comparison table.
#
# Run:
# docker compose --profile benchmark run --rm benchmark (official)
# docker compose --profile benchmark run --rm benchmark-turbo (turboquant)
# =============================================================================
set -euo pipefail
# Ensure llama-bench is findable in both official (/usr/local/bin) and TurboQuant (/app) images
