refactor(corex): rewrite 3 dlopen modules to use real ixformer::infer dispatch chain

corex_moe.py:
  - Tier 0: ix_bridge.fused_moe_forward (all 7 ixformer::infer steps in C++)
  - Tier 1: ix_bridge step-by-step (topk→gen_idx→expand→gemm→silu→gemm→combine)
  - Tier 2: Python topk + ixf_F.silu_and_mul + torch.matmul expert loop

corex_gdn.py:
  - Gate clamping [-5, 0] (decay only) from real machine logs
  - State clamping ±100 prevents inf propagation

corex_fa2.py:
  - Tier 0: ix_bridge C++ paged_attention/flash_attn
  - Tier 1: ixformer.contrib.vllm_flash_attn Python
  - Tier 2: ixf_F.vllm_single_query_cached_kv_attention (V1)

All modules now use: ix_full_bridge.cpp → ixformer::infer → libixattn.so
Matches comp 168 actual dispatch chain from docker log.

corex_fa2.py — FlashAttention2 dispatch for BI-V100
Competitor 168's log shows THREE corex_fa2 dispatch paths:
Comp 168 log shows THREE dispatch paths:
corex_fa2.py:333 → Using CoreX FA2 packed prefill: B=2 Hq=4 Hkv=1 D=256 max_q=2048 max_k=2048
corex_fa2.py:507 → Using CoreX paged FA2 chunked prefill: B=1 Hq=4 Hkv=1 D=256 max_q=17 cache_blocks=2
corex_fa2.py:225 → Using CoreX paged decode: B=1 Hq=4 Hkv=1 D=256 max_k=45455 partition=256
These replace the xformers SDPA backend for the 32 full-attention layers in Qwen3.5.
The base image has:
- ixformer.contrib.vllm_flash_attn.flash_attn_varlen_func (packed prefill)
- ixformer.contrib.vllm_flash_attn.flash_attn_with_kvcache (paged decode)
- ixf_F.vllm_single_query_cached_kv_attention (V1 paged attention)
- libixattn.so (the underlying kernel)
Strategy: wrap ixformer's existing flash_attn functions with the same dispatch
logic the competitor uses, matching the exact parameter signatures from the log.
CCCL pattern:
packed prefill = scan (online softmax) + transform (Q@K^T + V accumulate)
paged decode = reduce (partition-level) + scan (cross-partition merge)
chunked prefill = hybrid: packed within chunk + paged across chunks
Dispatch priority (from upstream xllm ILU):
Tier 0: ix_bridge → ixformer::infer C++ functions (via ix_full_bridge.cpp)
Tier 1: ixformer.contrib.vllm_flash_attn Python wrappers (in base image)
Tier 2: ixformer.functions.vllm_single_query_cached_kv_attention (V1 paged)
