* mtmd : add MERaLiON-2 multimodal audio support
Adds support for A*STAR's MERaLiON-2 audio-language model (3B and 10B)
to the multimodal framework.
Architecture:
- Whisper large-v2 encoder for audio feature extraction
- Gated MLP adaptor: ln_speech -> frame stack (x15) -> Linear+SiLU -> GLU -> out_proj
- Gemma2 3B / 27B decoder
The mmproj GGUF is generated via convert_hf_to_gguf.py --mmproj on the full
MERaLiON-2 model directory (architecture: MERaLiON2ForConditionalGeneration).
The decoder is converted separately as a standard Gemma2 model after stripping
the text_decoder. weight prefix.
New projector type: PROJECTOR_TYPE_MERALION
Supports tasks: speech transcription (EN/ZH/MS/TA), translation, spoken QA.
