jmorganca 36049361cd llama/compat: simplify shim (gemma3-tested)
Round of post-first-arch cleanup. No behavioral change — text + vision
still pass end-to-end on Ollama gemma3:latest (4B), 1B, and 270m.

Removes:
  - apply_tensor_transforms() and the TransformSpec registry. Registered
    the +1 RMSNorm shift at one point but empirically Ollama's blobs
    already have it baked in. YAGNI until an arch actually needs a
    tensor-data transform; the hook can come back data-driven.
  - Corresponding llama-model.cpp patch hunk (include + post-load call).
  - copy_kv<> template plumbing. Direct copy_u32_kv / copy_f32_kv are
    shorter and more readable.
  - set_str wrapper (one-liner around gguf_set_val_str).
  - find_tensor helper (only used once; inlined as a loop).
  - convert_f16_to_f32 helper (one-line inner loop, inlined).
  - set_f32_if_missing wrapper (inlined at 3 call sites).

Tightens:
  - Clip tensor renames are now a table (kGemma3ClipRenames) iterated by
    handle_gemma3_clip. Adding a rename is one row.
  - translate_clip_metadata now reuses detect_ollama_gemma3 for its
    "is this an Ollama blob?" check instead of a separate ad-hoc check.
