Studio: reserve the duplicated MTP target KV context for MLA models (GLM-5.2 OOM) (#6447)
* Studio: reserve the duplicated MTP target KV context for MLA models

GLM-5.2 UD-IQ1_S advertised its native 1,048,576-token context, loaded, then
crashed cublasCreate on the first generation with "CUDA error: the resource
allocation failed" on a 2x B200 box. The model loaded fine; the decode OOMed.

Cause: when MTP speculative decoding is engaged, llama.cpp keeps a second full
copy of the target model's KV context for draft verification (ctx_tgt=yes in the
spec log), at f16. On an MLA model that copy is ~the main KV again -- for GLM-5.2
at 1M ctx llama.cpp sized it at ~97.5 GiB -- but the auto-fit reserve only
counted the tiny embedded draft head (~2 GiB), 46x too low. So weights (~202 GiB)
+ main KV (~83 GiB) + a 2 GiB reserve looked like it fit in 2x182 GiB, when the
real footprint with the ~97 GiB MTP copy is ~382 GiB and overruns the cards.
Disabling speculative decoding removed the copy and the same context ran fine.

_estimate_mtp_overhead_bytes now adds the duplicated target context (the main KV
re-estimated at f16) for MLA models, so auto-fit backs the context off (or selects
more GPUs) instead of advertising one that OOMs. It is gated strictly on MLA
(kv_lora_rank present), which is exactly the family that keeps the extra copy
(GLM-5.x, DeepSeek, Kimi-K2); non-MLA MTP (Qwen, Gemma) is byte-for-byte
unchanged. The reserve stays deterministic from GGUF dims, matching #6312.

test_mtp_mla_target_ctx.py covers it: the MLA reserve includes the f16 target
copy and dominates the draft head, the copy is f16 regardless of the main cache
type and scales with context, non-MLA embedded heads keep overhead == draft KV,
and _fit_context_to_vram on the GLM-5.2 / 2x B200 budget now returns a context
below the requested 1M where the old draft-only reserve kept the full 1M.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Studio: stub structlog/loggers in MTP-MLA test so it is import-order-independent

The new test imports core.inference.llama_cpp, which pulls in orchestrator ->
structlog. In the lightweight test env structlog is absent, so when this file is
collected before test_mtp_vram_budget.py (it sorts first) or run directly,
collection aborted with ModuleNotFoundError. Install the same loggers/structlog
(+ conditional httpx) stubs the sibling MTP tests use before the import, matching
the established per-file convention.

"""MTP draft reserve for MLA models keeps a duplicated target KV context.
llama.cpp's MTP speculative decoding allocates a second full copy of the target
model's KV context (``ctx_tgt=yes``) for draft verification, at f16. On MLA
models (GLM-5.x, DeepSeek, Kimi-K2) that copy is ~the main KV again and dwarfs
the tiny embedded draft head, so omitting it let auto-fit pick a context that
fit on paper but OOMed ``cublasCreate`` at the first decode (e.g. GLM-5.2
UD-IQ1_S advertised the native 1M context on 2x B200, then crashed on the first
generation). Non-MLA MTP (Qwen/Gemma) keeps no such copy and must stay exactly
as #6312 tuned it.
