7884b0e0ac sampling : add support for backend sampling
This commit adds support for performing sampling operations on the
backend (e.g. GPU) as part of the model computation graph.

The motivation for this feature is to enable sampling to be performed
directly on the backend as part of the computation graph being executed,
allowing for some or all of the sampling to be done on the backend.

For example, the backend sampler chain might select/sample a token
directly in which case only the sampled token needs to be transferred
from device memory to host memory.

It is also possible for the backend samplers to perform filtering of
the logits, or compute and filter the probability distribution, in
which case only the filtered logits or probabilites need to be
transferred back to system memory for further processing by CPU
samplers.

Currently the backend sampling works in a similar manner to how
pooling works, it is a function that is called by build_graph and the
sampler operations become part of the models computation graph.

e3c337d87c llama : support negative ith in llama_get_ API (#6519)
* llama_sampling_sample with default args is more naively usable

* Batches populated by either llama_batch_get_one or llama_batch_add work with default args
  * Previously get_one could use the default argument
  * Previously add should usually have used the last index where logits[idx] == true
* This hopefully encourages the use of llama_batch_add
  * By giving expected results when using default arguments.
* Adds "negative indexing" feature to llama_get_logits_ith and llama_get_embeddings_ith
* Believed to work with any currently well behaved program
  * Default arg now works for both cases (previously would give strange results for add case)
  * Any non-negative number is unaffected and behaves as previously
  * Negative arguments were previously invalid.
* Implemented as a special case of indexing as suggested by @compilade in https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/6519

* Fixed mismatch type errors

* cited in macOS CI tests
* Missed in original updates based on PR feedback in https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/6519

238657db23 samplers : Min-P sampler implementation [alternative to Top P/Top K] (#3841)
* Introduce the new Min-P sampler by @kalomaze
   The Min-P sampling method was designed as an alternative to Top-P, and aims to ensure a balance of quality and variety. The parameter *p* represents the minimum probability for a token to be considered, relative to the probability of the most likely token.

* Min-P enabled and set to 0.05 default
