ggml : add numa options (#5377)

Browse source 
* Added numa options to allow finer grained control as well as plumbing for a new mirror mode that will require numa.h

* Reverted Makefile

* Fixed include

* Removed sched.h from ggml.h, moved ggml_get_numa_affinity into ggml.c, removed trailing whitespace and fixed up a few inconsistent variables

* removed trailing whitespace

* Added numa options to allow finer grained control as well as plumbing for a new mirror mode that will require numa.h

* Reverting Makefile

* Fixed a number of issues with the move from BOOL to ggml_numa_strategies. Added a note about mirror mode note being implemented yet

* Removing MIRROR_MODE code for this PR

* Removing last bit of MIRROR_MODE code for this PR

* Removing unneeded branch in server.cpp example and moving get_numa_affinity and making it static

* Fixed lingering init_llama_backend() bool calls in tests and examples

* Remote enum llama_numa_strategies

* Revert bad merge with dynatemp flags

* add missing enum ggml_numa_strategies declaration and revert sync problem with master

* add missing enum ggml_numa_strategies declaration

* fixed ggml_init_numa variable

* Update ggml.h

* Update READMEs with info about numa flags, change INTERLEAVE strategy name to DISTRIBUTE everywhere, implement the improved distribution strategy from @rankaiyx, fix a spelling mistake and un-merge some bad merges

* split numa init out from llama_backend_init and created llama_numa_init. Updated all code paths and samples

* Fix up some boolean vs enum comparisons

* Added #ifdefs for non-Linux OS that don't have cpu_set_t datatype

* Update ggml.h

@ -283,7 +283,11 @@ These options help improve the performance and memory usage of the LLaMA models.
### NUMA support
- `--numa`: Attempt optimizations that help on some systems with non-uniform memory access. This currently consists of pinning an equal proportion of the threads to the cores on each NUMA node, and disabling prefetch and readahead for mmap. The latter causes mapped pages to be faulted in on first access instead of all at once, and in combination with pinning threads to NUMA nodes, more of the pages end up on the NUMA node where they are used. Note that if the model is already in the system page cache, for example because of a previous run without this option, this will have little effect unless you drop the page cache first. This can be done by rebooting the system or on Linux by writing '3' to '/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' as root.
- `--numa distribute`: Pin an equal proportion of the threads to the cores on each NUMA node. This will spread the load amongst all cores on the system, utilitizing all memory channels at the expense of potentially requiring memory to travel over the slow links between nodes.
- `--numa isolate`: Pin all threads to the NUMA node that the program starts on. This limits the number of cores and amount of memory that can be used, but guarantees all memory access remains local to the NUMA node.
- `--numa numactl`: Pin threads to the CPUMAP that is passed to the program by starting it with the numactl utility. This is the most flexible mode, and allow arbitraty core usage patterns, for example a map that uses all the cores on one NUMA nodes, and just enough cores on a second node to saturate the inter-node memory bus.
These flags attempt optimizations that help on some systems with non-uniform memory access. This currently consists of one of the above strategies, and disabling prefetch and readahead for mmap. The latter causes mapped pages to be faulted in on first access instead of all at once, and in combination with pinning threads to NUMA nodes, more of the pages end up on the NUMA node where they are used. Note that if the model is already in the system page cache, for example because of a previous run without this option, this will have little effect unless you drop the page cache first.
