* ci: shorten Windows Vulkan build path
Keep the nested shader-generator compiler probes below Windows path limits in checkouts with longer repository names.
* mlx: fix Nemotron bugs and support global scales
Accept published Nemotron layer names while retaining legacy aliases, and
fix layer-count inference and detached MTP quantization. Stabilize Mamba
softplus, preserve FP32 vision normalization, and compile Mamba gate and
norm scaling.
Support per-expert F32 global scales and preserve activation-scale
companions in ModelOpt and compressed-tensors NVFP4 imports. Normalize
reciprocal globals and reject invalid scales. Keep activation scales
separate from weight-only inference.
* mlx: add Nemotron 3.5 Super
* minor adjustments
The MLX runner is the only Go inference runner left and is no longer
experimental, so its packages leave x/. The bindings become a top-level
mlx package beside the carried patches in mlx/compat, mirroring how
llama/ holds the llama.cpp integration, and the runner becomes mlxrunner
with the architectures nested under the package they implement.
Subpackages move with their parent unless listed.

Every package keeps its name, so the Go changes are the import path
rewrites the moves force, and the CMake, Dockerfile, CI cache keys, drift
check and Darwin payload script follow the new paths. Four edits are not
paths: the runner's blank architecture imports become the package
mlxrunner/model/architectures, so the list to extend for a new model sits
beside the architecture directories; a depguard rule keeps the two test
harnesses out of non-test code, as the x/internal placement used to; the
CI change filter's two entries for the long-deleted x/imagegen/mlx now
name the bindings' CMake project and the carried patches, so a change to
either builds the payload; and the tokenizer parity test reads its
fixtures from its own testdata instead of walking out of x/.
x/server and x/imagegen/manifest stay for the next two commits.
