* fix: enable reasoning budget sampler for gemma4
Add thinking_start_tag and thinking_end_tag to
common_chat_params_init_gemma4(). Without these, the reasoning
budget sampler never activates for gemma4.
Make the newline after "thought" optional in the PEG parser to
handle budget=0 (sampler forces end tag before the newline).
Add test case for empty thinking block.
Fixes#21487
* use p.space() instead of p.optional(p.literal("\n")) in gemma4 thought parser
* Relax prefill parser to allow space.
* Move changes from prefix() to parser generation
* Only allow spaces if we're not having a pure content parser next
* chat : fix out_of_range crash in throw path (#20424 regression)
#20424 introduced effective_input = generation_prompt + input, but the
throw path uses input.substr(result.end) where result.end is a position
within effective_input. Every thinking model with a non-empty
generation_prompt crashes with std::out_of_range instead of the intended
error message.
Test crashes on unpatched master, passes with fix:

* common : fix Step-3.5-Flash format detection and thinking support
Step-3.5-Flash uses the same XML-style tool call format as Qwen3-Coder
(<tool_call><function=...><parameter=...>) but its Jinja template lacks
the bare <function> and plural <parameters> markers that the detection
logic previously required. This caused it to fall through to Hermes 2
Pro, which doesn't call func_args_not_string(), so arguments stayed as
JSON strings and templates using arguments|items crashed.
Additionally, the Qwen3-Coder-XML format handler had no thinking support.
Models like Step-3.5-Flash that unconditionally emit <think> in their
generation prompt need the same thinking_forced_open handling that
Nemotron v3 and Hermes 2 Pro already have, otherwise reasoning_content
is never separated from content in API responses.
Changes:
- Relax Qwen3-Coder XML detection to only require the 3 shared markers
- Tighten Nemotron v3 branch to also require bare <function> and plural
<parameters>, preventing Step-3.5-Flash from being misrouted via <think>
- Add thinking_forced_open support to Qwen3-Coder-XML init function
- Add <think>/</think> to preserved tokens
- Fix build_grammar_xml_tool_call to handle thinking_forced_open in the
grammar root rule, allowing </think> before tool calls
- Add Step-3.5-Flash chat template and format detection test

* chat : route Step-3.5-Flash to Nemotron v3 PEG parser, add tests
Step-3.5-Flash uses the same XML tool call format as Qwen3-Coder and
Nemotron 3 Nano (<tool_call>/<function=...>/<parameter=...>) but with
unconditional <think> output. Route it to the Nemotron v3 PEG parser
for streaming and schema-aware parameter parsing.
Detection: templates with <think> + XML tool tags use Nemotron v3 PEG
parser; templates without <think> (Qwen3-Coder) use GBNF grammar.
Tests cover: basic messages, tool calls with/without thinking content,
parallel tool calls, code string parameters, optional </parameter>
closing tags, and JSON schema response format.
* chat : remove dead thinking code from qwen3_coder_xml
Remove thinking handling code that became unreachable after routing
Step-3.5-Flash to the Nemotron v3 PEG parser. Qwen3-Coder has no
<think> in its template, so the thinking_forced_open logic, preserved
tokens, and grammar prefix were dead paths.
* mtmd : chat : Fix extra \n between text and media marker
Thanks to @tugot17 for detecting and reporting the issue.
For vision models (e.g. LFM2.5-VL-1.6B and Qwen/Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct) `llama-mtmd-cli` produces identical output to HF implementation.
However `llama-server` doesn't. I traced it down to extra newline
inserted after `<__media__>`.
This happens in `to_json_oaicompat`, that treats media markers as text
and joins all parts with `\n` separator.
PR introduces new type `media_marker` and uses it for media markers.
Extra logic is added to prevent insertion of newlines before and after
media markers.
With this change number of input tokens is identical to HF
implementation and as a result the output is also identical.
I explored other ways to address the issue
* remove completely `\n` between text parts in `to_json_oaicompat`
* merge text messages in server-common.cpp before sending them to `to_json_oaicompat`
Please propose alternative ways of fixing this issue.
* Refactor to use explicite per type ifs
