mukesh d282144339 gqa: ADR-0060/0062/0063/0064 unified GQA kernels + CPU cost model
Land the new GQA fused-attention kernels (ADR-0060) for prefill/decode
across long and short context, the TL discipline primitives they depend
on (ADR-0062 lazy load, ADR-0063 scratch_scope + copy_to), and the
per-op-type CPU issue cost model (ADR-0064). Remove the pre-ADR-0060
mesh-attention baseline now that the unified kernels supersede it.

ADR-0060 (long context)
- _gqa_decode.py: M-fold + 2-level chain reduce-to-root (Level-2
  intra-CUBE row-then-col + Level-1 inter-CUBE) — root-only output.
- _gqa_prefill.py: head-parallel + Ring KV rotation around C CUBEs,
  online-softmax merge per ring step, per-CUBE distributed output.
- Each merge stage wraps in scratch_scope() and persists running
  (m, l, O) via copy_to() to lift the 1 MiB scratch ceiling.

ADR-0060 §B.split.2 (short context, kv_per_cube in {1,2,4,8})
- _gqa_decode_short.py / _gqa_prefill_short.py: no cube-SP; each CUBE
  owns whole KV heads; PE-parallel heads with intra-group chain
  reduce. Prefill has no Ring KV (each head fully resident).

ADR-0062 (lazy tl.load): future-bearing TensorHandle, auto-wait at
first consuming op (dot/MATH/store/send/copy_to/composite).

ADR-0063 (tl.scratch_scope + tl.copy_to): scoped per-tile arena with
copy_to writeback primitive for persistent running state.

ADR-0064 (CPU issue cost model)
- common/cpu_issue_cost.py: per-op-type table (composite=40 ns,
  primitives=5 ns); ratios are load-bearing per D1.
- TLContext: issue_cost_table param; _emit_dispatch_overhead(kind)
  consults table with dispatch_cycles fallback (ADR-0046 §D6
  back-compat).
- Live PE_CPU paths (greenlet + legacy) construct TLContext with
  DEFAULT_CPU_ISSUE_COST so saturation lever (ADR-0060 §1) is
  measurable end-to-end.

P7 headline bench: milestone-gqa-headline writes per-panel
op_log_summary to 1H_milestone_output/gqa_headline/sweep.json. No
figure renderers yet (deferred).

Removals (pre-ADR-0060 baseline now superseded):
- benches: _attention_mesh_kv.py, _attention_mesh_mlo.py,
  _attention_mesh_mlo_2d.py, milestone_gqa_llama70b.py
- tests: test_attention_*, test_mesh_*, test_milestone_gqa_llama70b
- topology: llama70b_4sip.yaml (only consumer was the deleted diag)
- artifacts: 1H_milestone_output/gqa/ (sweep.json + 5 PNGs)
- tests/gqa/ plot helper + test (broken on Windows Tcl/Tkinter)
- ADR-0060/0061 references to deleted file paths cleaned up
  (EN + KO kept in sync).

Tests: 124/124 focused regression green (attention + Phase E + TL
discipline + triton_emu + pe_components). Full regression: 764 pass,
2 pre-existing test_bench_registry failures (stale EXPECTED_NAMES
across multiple benches, not introduced here).

"""Phase 1 spec test for Phase D: short-context GQA kernels
(ADR-0060 §B "Items from the long/short context split", item B.split.2).
The long-context kernels (§5.2 decode / §5.5 prefill) shard each KV
head row-wise across all CUBEs. At short context (S_kv < 256K), that
shard is too thin to feed the engines and the cube-level collective
overhead dominates. The short-context kernels drop cube-SP entirely:
each CUBE owns ``kv_per_cube`` *whole* KV heads, no S_kv sharding across
CUBEs.
Design (per AskUserQuestion answers in this session):
- PE-parallel heads: P PEs split into ``kv_per_cube`` groups, each
group does PE-SP across (P/kv_per_cube) PEs for one owned head.
- scratch_scope + tl.copy_to discipline mirrors the long kernels.
- One short kernel handles kv_per_cube ∈ {1, 2, 4, 8} via a parameter.
Group layout on the 2×4 PE grid:
kv_per_cube=1, group=8 PEs (full 2×4): row chain + col bridge.
kv_per_cube=2, group=4 PEs (one row): row chain only.
kv_per_cube=4, group=2 PEs (adj cols): 1-step chain.
kv_per_cube=8, group=1 PE: no chain.
After chain reduce-to-group-root, the group's root PE writes its
owned head's output. No inter-CUBE reduce.
Phase 1 (this commit): tests only — production code lands in Phase 2.
All tests fail because the short kernels (``_gqa_decode_short.py`` and
``_gqa_prefill_short.py``) do not exist yet.
