docs(glm53): publish D16 lineage and benchmark evidence

[devinkuhn]

Summary

Publishes the D16 performance evidence and corrected D22 production qualification without mixing runtime code into the review.

Included

• sanitized full llm-inference-bench JSON
• sustained decode and Burst/E2E matrices through 512k
• prefill scout and Prometheus validation
• hardware telemetry and capacity skips
• explicit correction: D16 is performance evidence only, not production-readiness evidence
• delayed corruption root mechanism and D22 corrected design
• D22 128k external reload and production smoke evidence
• explicit lineage disposition and ownership links to feat(lmcache): support GLM hybrid DCP geometry #525–feat(glm53): supervise vLLM and LMCache together #527

Verification

• D16 JSON parsed successfully: 25 sustained cells and 25 Burst/E2E cells
• D16 artifact SHA-256: 946b22d4cb9f44051ab21af82e7c979f378d6506ad192a3bb7cce82921e94c07
• D22 unique 131,041-token C1 store
• L1: 60 objects / 993,329,152 bytes
• C2 external reload: 258,048 tokens total (2 × 129,024)
• concurrent outputs and unrelated post-reload raw probe coherent
• production container healthy, restart count 0, OOM false; no lockhandle, CUDA error, EngineDead, or new Xid
• routed Bifrost smoke returned exactly OK for the exact-OK prompt; displayed latency 578 ms, 20 input / 53 output tokens
• git diff --check: clean

This supersedes the evidence portion of closed umbrella PR #522. Runtime features remain separated in #523–#527.

Duplicate-work note

This is an evidence correction to the existing submission, not a new implementation PR.

Qualification correction: delayed lockhandle corruption and a stores-enabled startup Xid 31 were discovered after the published run. Treat the D16 benchmark as performance evidence only, not production-readiness evidence. The store-disabled control remains coherent; LMCache D2H storage is under investigation.

D22 corrected qualification is now committed in 855971a. D16 remains performance evidence only. D22 passed unique 131,041-token C1 store, 60-object / 993,329,152-byte L1 population, two coherent 129,024-token external reloads (258,048 total), and an unrelated post-reload raw probe. Production remained healthy with restart count 0, OOM false, and no lockhandle, CUDA error, EngineDead, or new Xid. Bifrost route smoke returned exactly OK.
