perf(matmul): NEON fused dot for Q4_K and Q2_K
Q4_K: scalar → NEON (4-way FMA, 2-way parallel sum_x/dot accumulation) Phi-3.5 Q4_K_M: 1.7 → 3.2 tok/s (1.9x) Llama 3.1 8B Q4_K_M: 0.6 → 1.2 tok/s (2.0x) Q2_K: add fused dot (previously fell through to dequant-then-dot generic path) No measurable speedup (~neutral). Kept for future optimization and to avoid allocating a tmp buffer on each matmul call. Both implementations maintain identical numerical output: - 7/7 model regression tests pass - 35/35 unit tests pass Llama 3.1 8B Q4_K_M vs llama.cpp (100 tokens, 4 threads, no Metal): - Before this session: 0.6 tok/s (llama.cpp ~2.5) = 24% - After (this + Q8_0 auto-quant): 1.2 tok/s = 48% Still lots of headroom — Q3_K NEON and Q2_K further tuning are next targets.
