llama.cpp b11183 splits Metal FA kernels

This release quietly refactors how llama.cpp handles Flash Attention on Apple Silicon by splitting kernels into per-dtype libraries. It’s a structural optimization that likely reduces memory overhead and improves compilation times for Metal users, though the immediate performance gains are subtle compared to algorithmic leaps. The build matrix remains massive, adding ROCm 10.0 and CUDA 13.4 support while disabling KleidiAI on Apple Silicon for now. This is infrastructure maintenance rather than a feature breakthrough, but it keeps the runtime robust across the expanding landscape of hardware backends.
