Currently we assume that images take 768 tokens of context size for
the purposes of clipping old messages that exceed the context window.
However, our mllama implementation stores the full image embedding
in a single token. As a result, there is significant waste of context
space.
Ideally, we would handle this more generically and have the
implementation report the number of tokens. However, at the moment
this would just result in a similar set of 'if' conditions in the
runner plus APIs to report it back. So for now, we just keep this
simple.
-Update mllama to take the cross attention state as embeddings in
a batch, more similar to how Llava handles it. This improves
integration with the input cache.
-Pass locations in a prompt for embeddings using tags similar to Llava.
-Abstract interface to vision models so the main runner accesses Clip
and Mllama similarly
