graph: store the conv state of every rollback arch in one set_rows

The rollback slots of the causal conv history were written with one copy per slot in qwen4exp, glm5-next, kimi-k3, bailingmoe3, lfm and mamba2, while delta_net already wrote them with a single set_rows. build_conv_state_store now does this for all of them: one copy without rollback, otherwise one set_rows of the overlapping windows into the min(n, n_rs_seq + 1) slots a rollback can read. The slot order {n_rs_seq, ..., 0} is a constant of the recurrent memory, kept in its own buffer next to the state, and each graph takes a view of its tail. Its size no longer depends on the ubatch, so the reserved graph covers every ubatch shape, and the graph input that held it is gone. A model that is not causal never rolls back, so the context clamps n_rs_seq to 0 for it, like for an arch without rollback support.

+DPAS is the quantized path. q4_0 or q8_0 KV cache, decode and batches up to 31 tokens, Xe2 and newer only. It issues dpas straight on the quantized blocks and never materialises an f16 copy. vISA gets used here because joint_matrix has no s4 type.

+VEC/TILE are plain kernels with no XMX in them. They run when DPAS is off or the hardware doesn't support it.

+"""Example client for the llama-server /v1/realtime websocket, with the openai SDK.
+
+Start a server with an audio model, e.g. LFM3-Audio:
+
+    llama-server -hf LiquidAI/LFM3-Audio-2B-GGUF
+
+Spoken conversation, the audio of each wav file is one user turn. It is sent in chunks as it would come from a
+microphone, the server prefills it as it arrives so the response starts right after the last chunk:
+
+    python examples/realtime_client.py --instructions "Respond with interleaved text and audio." question.wav
+
+Output modalities: left out, the model picks; "text", "audio" or "text,audio" (interleaved) force the response.
+Without --instructions, a forced mode comes with the system prompt of the LFM3-Audio or LFM3-Omni model card:
+
+    python examples/realtime_client.py --output-modalities text,audio --out answer.wav question.wav
+
+Tool calls: --tools gives the conversation a demo tool, the client runs its calls and sends the results back:
+
+    python examples/realtime_client.py --tools --text "Set the volume to 30."
+
+Text turns go in with --text, transcription sessions transcribe each file:
+
+    python examples/realtime_client.py --text "What is the capital of France?"
+    python examples/realtime_client.py --type transcription --language en speech.wav
+
+Live transcription models (Voxtral Realtime, LFM3-Audio live ASR) transcribe while the audio is sent, a transcription
+session opens with ?intent=transcription:
+
+    python examples/realtime_client.py --type transcription speech.wav
