Remove the hard max_tokens=2048 default and le=4096 cap for GGUF
chat completions. When max_tokens is not set (None), the field is
omitted from the llama-server payload entirely, letting the model
generate until it produces an EOS token or hits the context limit.
This is critical for thinking/reasoning models (Qwen3.5, DeepSeek-R1,
etc.) where the thinking phase alone can consume 1000+ tokens before
the actual answer. With the previous 2048 default, simple questions
like "What is 2+2?" used all tokens on thinking and produced empty
visible responses.
Changes:
- llama_cpp.py: max_tokens default None, only include in payload
when explicitly set
- models/inference.py: default None, remove le=4096 cap
- routes/inference.py: pass max_tokens directly, no "or 2048" fallback
llama-server handles omitted max_tokens gracefully (generates until
EOS or context limit). The context size (-c flag, default 4096) acts
as the hard upper bound.
