* rpc : add support for multiple devices
Allow rpc-server to expose multiple devices from a single endpoint.
Change RPC protocol to include device identifier where needed.
closes: #15210
* fixes
* use ggml_backend_reg_t
* address review comments
* fix llama-bench backend report
* address review comments, change device naming
* fix cmd order
* * llama-bench: add --devices support
- Support --devices same as llama-server
- Provide for benchmarking different device combinations
- Include --list-devices like llama-server for convenience
* fix: field display ordering restored
* fix: integrated the rpc devices
- aimed to mimic the server as much as possible
* cleanup: defaults for list-devices
- handle dup device listing with RPC
* cleanup: remove dup device load calls
* docs: update llama-bench
- added the recently added n-cpu-moe option to the docs while in there
* llama-bench: rpc device simplification
* rpc servers unify with other devices earlier, simplifying code
* --list-devices made stateless and simpler
* various cleanup
* ggml-backend : add GGML_BACKEND_DEVICE_TYPE_IGPU device type
ggml-backend : add device id to device props
llama : only use iGPU devices if there are no GPU devices
llama : do not use multiple devices from different backends with the same device id
Currently if RPC servers are specified with '--rpc' and there is a local
GPU available (e.g. CUDA), the benchmark will be performed only on the
RPC device(s) but the backend result column will say "CUDA,RPC" which is
incorrect. This patch is adding all local GPU devices and makes
llama-bench consistent with llama-cli.
Add no_warmup parameter to cmd_params struct and command-line parsing to allow users to skip warmup runs before benchmarking.
- Add no_warmup boolean field to cmd_params struct
- Add --no-warmup command-line argument parsing
- Add help text documentation for the new flag
- Wrap existing warmup logic in conditional check
- Maintain full backward compatibility (warmup enabled by default)
Addresses #14224
* llama : deprecate llama_kv_self_ API
ggml-ci
* llama : allow llama_memory_(nullptr)
ggml-ci
* memory : add flag for optional data clear in llama_memory_clear

* threading: support for GGML_SCHED_PRIO_LOW, update thread info on Windows to avoid throttling
We talked about adding LOW priority for GGML threads in the original threadpool PR.
It might be useful for some cases to avoid contention.
Latest Windows ARM64 releases started parking (offlining) the CPU cores
more aggresively which results in suboptimal performance with n_threads > 4.
To deal with that we now disable Power Throttling for our threads for the NORMAL
and higher priorities.

* Remove mmap workaround on windows
After some testing I found that mmap is supported on windows and for
many GPUs on Linux. Therefore I remove the workaround for windows since
it is not necessary.
* Update llama-bench README
SYCL backend introduced a workaround that allows execution of
llama-bench also without specifying `--mmp 0` flag
