feat: 10-file MoE bridge pipeline — compile, dispatch, patch, test

The complete chain to replace 180 Python fallback calls/token with C++:

BUILD:
  1. moe_ops_impl.cu (489L) — 5 MoE functions in ixformer::infer namespace
     - topk_softmax: dynamic num_experts (128 for Qwen3.5), shared-mem
     - moe_compute_token_index: histogram + prefix_sum + scatter
     - moe_expand_input: gather kernel
     - moe_w16a16_group_gemm: per-expert cuinferCustomGemm loop
     - moe_output_reduce_sum: weighted combine
  2. ix_full_bridge_v2.cpp (461L) — pybind11 bridge, 14+1 functions
  3. build_moe_bridge.sh — torch.utils.cpp_extension compile, link cuinfer+ixformer

DISPATCH:
  4. moe_dispatch.py — 3-tier fallback (fused → individual → PyTorch)
  5. patch_moe_hot_path.py — monkey-patch Qwen3_5MoE.forward()

CONFIG:
  6. computility-run.yaml — max_num_seqs 1→2 (match sub168 baseline)
  7. patch_ops.sh — add build + deploy steps for MoE bridge

VERIFY:
  8. probe_moe_symbols.sh — nm -D .so to confirm 5 MoE symbols present
  9. test_moe_bridge.py — random-tensor integration test (no weights needed)

DEPLOY:
 10. Dockerfile — COPY ex_engine sources for in-container compilation
