ViperEkura 7540acb43e perf: dispatch linear gemv by decode batch size and unify extension style
- replace the per-shape auto tables in the linear backend with an M-banded rule (M in [2,4] on compute capability 8.0+) that measured at the HBM bandwidth floor across every family, and fold the capability check into the capable guard
- drop the unreachable swiglu auto shape-table machinery so both backends share one env-mode ladder via the new dispatch.env_mode helper
- add __all__ across extension modules, name the rotary registration records, and unify typing to the typing-module style
- rewrite test_linear_dispatch.py around behavioral routing assertions and document the M-banded policy in the developer docs
- Benchmark: L20 SM89, Python dispatch overhead 2.9us to 1.5us, auto now covers every projection shape at M in [2,4].

"""FP8 CUDA kernel interface adapter (the only module touching the pybind).
Attention-style thin wrappers: one Python entry per binding, called directly
— no torch.library dispatch layer. Optional arguments (``ring_state``,
``bias``) keep native Optional semantics at the pybind boundary, and
in-place buffer updates (the delayed-scaling ring fold, like attention's
KV-cache appends) happen on-stream without mutation declarations. CUDA-only:
non-CUDA or unsupported inputs raise from the binding's TORCH_CHECKs.
- ``quantize(x, scale, fmt, transposed=False) -> (x8|x8T, amax)`` — BF16/FP16/FP32
→ FP8 with fused amax (``transposed`` picks the orientation; arity is fixed)
- ``quantize_dual(x, scale, fmt) -> (x8, x8T, amax)`` — both orientations, one read
- ``mm_fp8(a8, b8, sa, sb) -> out`` — pre-quantized FP8 GEMM (BF16 output)
``scale`` is the quantization multiplier (device scalar); ``fmt`` is
``"e4m3"`` or ``"e5m2"``. ``amax`` values are *returned*, never passed as
output arguments.
Policy (scales, amax history, delayed scaling, autocast) lives in ``fp8.py``;
this module is stateless.

``hist[hist_idx]`` and publishes the next scale as
``max(hist) / fp8_max / pow2_margin`` — the returned ``amax`` is then the
self-cleaned persistent slot (reads zero). None keeps the classic
