phase 3 day 3-4: RLV 7/7 + Phi-3.5 server support + Metal workaround

RLV pipeline (Day 3):
- locator: non-LLM keyword scoring with section-title bonus, LLM fallback
  with 1-indexed choice numbers (parser-safe)
- lookup: select-by-index for structured docs (≤8 sentences), direct-answer
  for narrative docs (>8 sentences) — adaptive based on chunk size
- verifier: question-grounding via locator scoring (catches locator errors
  that citation-grounding alone misses), word-boundary fuzzy match
- gist: paragraph-aware chunker, narrative-mode larger chunks (1500 chars)
- eval: eval_acme.py (7/7 PASS) and eval_wikitext.py (stress test harness)

Phi-3.5 server support (Day 4):
- server chat template: auto-detect Phi-3 architecture (has_fused_qkv)
  and apply <|user|>...<|end|> template instead of ChatML
- Metal workaround: TQ_NO_METAL env var to disable Metal GPU init
  (Metal init corrupts Phi-3.5 inference — root cause TBD)
- tq_matmul_gguf_cpu: force-CPU variant for fused QKV/FFN matmuls
- Phi-3.5 set as default RLV model (1.8x faster than Llama-3.2-3B
  thanks to 32K vocab vs 128K)

+"""D3 Karpathy gate: reproduce the v0.12 Acme 7-question benchmark with RLV.
+
+Background: bench/document_level_rag_test.sh is the v0.12 chunk-RAG vs
+full-document benchmark. The full-document baseline gets 7/7 (the doc is
+~300 words and fits well below the 1024-token cliff). The chunk-RAG
+baseline misses the multi-hop questions that require cross-section
+reasoning.
+
+The D3 gate for RLV is parity with the full-document baseline: 7/7. If
+RLV can match it, we have validated that the 5-stage pipeline doesn't
+*lose* anything compared to dumping the whole doc into the model — and
+we are then ready for D5 (the 8000-token wikitext stress test) where
+pure long-context fails and RLV's structural advantage shows up.
+
+Why RLV should be able to do this:
+  - GIST chunks the 5 sections cleanly (paragraph-aware chunker)
+  - LOCATOR has full text per chunk to score against (Day 3 redesign)
+  - LOOKUP reads only the right section, well below the cliff
+  - VERIFY citation-grounds each answer in the actual region text
+  - Multi-hop questions get retried by RESEARCH if the first chunk fails

+Section 1: Financial Overview.
+Acme Corporation reported total revenue of 847 million dollars in fiscal year 2025, representing a 15 percent increase over the previous year. Operating margins improved to 23 percent. The company opened 12 new offices globally. Net income reached 195 million dollars. The stock price increased by 34 percent during the fiscal year.
+
+Section 2: Product Development.
+The engineering team launched three major products this year. Project Atlas delivered a new cloud infrastructure platform used by 400 enterprise customers. The mobile division released version 5.0 of the flagship application with 20 million downloads in the first quarter. Research and development spending increased to 120 million dollars, representing 14 percent of total revenue.
+
+Section 3: Growth Strategy.
+The Southeast Asia expansion initiative was the primary driver of revenue growth in 2025. The company established offices in Singapore, Jakarta, and Bangkok, capturing 8 percent market share within 6 months. This regional strategy was originally proposed by Executive Vice President James Park during the 2023 strategic planning retreat in Kyoto.
+
+Section 4: Human Resources.
+The company grew its workforce to 5200 employees across 28 countries. Dr. Maria Santos was appointed as Chief Technology Officer in January 2025, replacing the retiring Dr. Robert Kim. The employee satisfaction score reached 4.2 out of 5.0. The company invested 15 million dollars in employee training programs.
+
+Section 5: Risk Factors.
+Currency fluctuations in Southeast Asian markets posed a 3 percent headwind to reported revenue. Supply chain disruptions affected the hardware division in Q2 but were resolved by Q3. The company maintains a cybersecurity insurance policy valued at 50 million dollars. Regulatory changes in the European Union required additional compliance spending of 8 million dollars.
