claude ab42db2b87 mavgpud: read the card from sysfs and own llama-server's lifecycle (V-488)
The workstation cannot keep a 7-14B resident: it would hold 16GB against the
owner's CPT runs, Correx and the manga-recap pipeline. So the process that
stays up costs no VRAM and the model comes and goes under it.

Contention is detected by presence on the KFD, not by a VRAM threshold. A ROCm
process registers under /sys/class/kfd/kfd/proc when it initialises HIP, well
before it allocates, so we see a contender during its startup instead of after
it has already lost an allocation race. rocm-smi is not installed on that box
and a per-second subprocess would get tuned down until useless, so this reads
sysfs and forks nothing.

Free VRAM is read only to decide whether to start. It is never a reason to
stop: by the time free VRAM has dropped, the other job has already failed.
