fix(NO-FALLBACK): eliminate all silent fallbacks — crash or succeed

Policy: fallback = 0 score = same as crash. Better to crash with clear
error log so we can diagnose.

Changes:

1. corex_gdn.py: COMPLETE REWRITE (374 lines)
   - CoreXGDN.forward() now implements full GDN layer forward
   - Accepts all 13 args from qwen3_5.py (hidden_states, attn_metadata,
     conv_state, temporal_state, in_proj_qkv/z/b/a, conv1d_weight,
     A_log, dt_bias, norm, out_proj)
   - Prefill: causal conv1d → split q/k/v → chunk_gated_delta_rule
     (fp32 accumulation, xllm-aligned cumsum+difference form)
   - Decode: causal_conv1d_update → single-step recurrent with
     bmm/baddbmm_ (ixformer accelerated)
   - NO FALLBACK — if something fails, it crashes

2. qwen3_5.py: Remove all try/except fallbacks
   - GatedDeltaNet.__init__: CoreXGDN init MUST succeed (no try/except)
   - GatedDeltaNet.forward: CoreXGDN.forward() called directly, no catch
   - MoE init: raise RuntimeError if moe_forward missing

3. patch_ops.sh: MUST deploy all three corex modules
   - Reverted previous 'don't overwrite' — base image produces NaN
   - corex_gdn.py + corex_moe.py + corex_fa2.py all deployed unconditionally

+# 系统开发状态分析 — 基于 comp 168 日志 AST 链条
+
+## 日志分析: 两次运行对比
+
+### 运行1: 基础镜像原生 (07-23, Sub168) — ✅ 正常
+```
+AST调用链条 (真机上确实在调用):
+  corex_gdn.py:56   → dlopen /usr/local/corex/lib64/libcorex_gdn.so ✅
+  corex_gdn.py:228  → GDN prefill fused kernel ✅
+  corex_gdn.py:138  → GDN decode fused kernel ✅
+  corex_moe.py:339  → MoE prefill: expert-grouped-wmma ✅
+  corex_moe.py:249  → MoE decode fused ✅
+  corex_fa2.py:333  → FA2 packed prefill (B=2 Hq=4 Hkv=1 D=256) ✅
+  corex_fa2.py:507  → FA2 paged chunked prefill ✅
+  corex_fa2.py:225  → FA2 paged decode (partition=256) ✅
+
+结果: generation throughput ~22 tokens/s, 无NaN, 无OOM
+```
+
+### 运行2: 我们的Docker (08-07, Sub508) — ❌ 失败
+```
+问题链条:
+  max_model_len=100000 (yaml未生效! 应为80000)
+  max_num_seqs=1 (yaml未生效! 应为2)
+  qwen3_5.py NaN: GDN layer 0 frac=0.9998, layer 1-4 同样
+  _custom_ops.py topk_softmax: module 'ixformer.functions' has no attribute 'vllm_moe_topk_softmax' × 500+
+  MoE falling back to pure PyTorch experts permanently
+  OOM crash at 03:51 → 引擎死亡
+
+结果: 功能测试大量失败, 最终OOM崩溃
+```
+
+## 关键发现: 三个dlopen链条 (来自 comp 168 真机证据)
+
+### 1. libcorex_gdn.so — GDN decode/prefill
+- 路径: `/usr/local/corex/lib64/libcorex_gdn.so`
+- 调用者: `corex_gdn.py` (我们已有, 246行)
+- 状态: 我们的corex_gdn.py已部署, 但qwen3_5.py的GDN数学有NaN
+- 需要: 修复qwen3_5.py中GDN的fp32 accumulation
+
+### 2. ixformer MoE pipeline — 7步fused MoE
+- 路径: 基础镜像 `/usr/local/corex/lib/python3/dist-packages/ixformer/`
+- 调用者: `corex_moe.py` (我们已有, 237行)
+- 7步: topk_softmax → gen_idx → expand → group_gemm(w13) → silu_mul → group_gemm(w2) → combine
+- 状态: Python binding `ixf_F.vllm_moe_topk_softmax` 不存在
+- 但C++层 `ixformer::infer::topk_softmax` 在 libixformer.so 中 **存在**
+- 需要: ix_bridge.cpp 需要编译, 让Python能调到C++层的MoE函数
+
+### 3. ixformer FA2 — FlashAttention2 三模式
+- 路径: `ixformer.contrib.vllm_flash_attn` (Python, 基础镜像自带)
+- 调用者: `corex_fa2.py` (我们已有, 279行)
+- 状态: corex_fa2.py **没有被部署**, 也**没有被qwen3_5.py调用**
+- 基础镜像的qwen3_5.py直接调corex_fa2, 但我们替换了qwen3_5.py后,
+  attention走的是vllm内置Attention → xformers后端
+- 需要: 把corex_fa2.py也部署, 并在qwen3_5.py的Qwen3_5FullAttention中
+  优先走CoreX FA2 (三模式dispatch)

+## 立即行动项 (不需要思考, 直接写代码)
+
+### P0: 修复 computility-run.yaml 参数不生效问题
+Aug 7日志显示 max_model_len=100000, 但yaml写的80000。
+需要确认yaml格式正确, enable_chunked_prefill要显式写。
+
+### P1: 部署 corex_fa2.py 并接入 qwen3_5.py
+comp 168日志证明FA2三模式dispatch是真机上跑的。
+我们的qwen3_5.py替换了base的, 但丢失了FA2调用。
+
+### P2: 搬运 fused_moe.h + attention.h (2个文件)
+upstream_ref中最后2个未搬运的头文件。
+
+### P3: 确认可提交
+Dockerfile + computility-run.yaml + patch_ops.sh 链路完整。
