merge: reconcile squashed commit with modelhub history

Decode path:
- ≤32K: paged_attention_v1 (5D KV layout, x=8) — verified on real BI-V100
- >32K: paged_attention_v2 (5D→4D permute) — verified 65K on real BI-V100
- Removes _forward_decode_pytorch Python fallback entirely

Verified: v1 passes ctx=1024..32768, v2 passes ctx=32768..65536+
flash_attn_varlen_func prefill already merged in prior commit (ad6863ed).
