Fix GLM-5.1 MTP=4 crashes under concurrent load:

  • Pad expanded_block_table_buffer columns like MultiGroupBlockTable to avoid expand size mismatch (e.g. 1669 vs 1670) when flattening MTP decode tokens into the indexer path.
  • Drop padded MTP decode slots so seq_lens and block_table row counts stay consistent in the flatten path.
  • Normalize DeepGEMM context_lens to 2D contiguous tensors and flatten 2D seq_lens for persistent_topk in sparse_attn_indexer.

Fixes #41094 (DeepGEMM contiguous assertion) together with the block table alignment that caused EngineDeadError on high-concurrency MTP.
