fix: GPU layer offloading not working (Issues #130, #126, #129)

The gpu_layers() method was returning 999 (offload all layers) for ALL
backends including CPU. This caused confusion where Vulkan would be
detected but layers would still be assigned to CPU in llama.cpp.

Root cause: GpuBackend::gpu_layers() didn't check which backend was active.

Changes:
- Match on backend type: CPU returns 0, GPU backends return 999
- Removed incorrect #[allow(dead_code)] from actively used methods
- new_with_backend(), with_moe_config(), get_backend_info() all in use

This fixes:
- Issue #130: Vulkan compiled but layers not offloaded
- Issue #126: MoE models not detecting GPU (same root cause)
- Issue #129: Partial fix - still need release workflow update

Users building with --features llama-vulkan will now actually get
GPU layer offloading. Layers will show as assigned to VULKAN device
instead of CPU in llama.cpp logs.

Testing:
- cargo build --features llama (compiles clean)
- cargo clippy --all-features (no warnings)
- GPU backends properly return 999 layers
- CPU backend properly returns 0 layers
