The __AVXVNNI__ branches of dot_i8i8/dot_i4i8 (quant.h) accumulated every vpdpbusd
into a single register, a serial dependency chain (vpdpbusd is latency-bound ~5c).
Use 4 independent accumulators, mirroring the NEON 4-accumulator path in this file.
On x86 the tiled SMMLA _mm path is ARM-only, so these two dots are THE int8/int4
IDOT matmul kernels on x86 (g_idot=1 default), prefill and decode.
Integer accumulation is associative -> bit-identical (test_idot passes bit-for-bit).
Microbench (tests/bench_idot, i7-12700H P-core, I=6144):
dot_i8i8 6.85 -> 19.26 GB/s (2.81x)
dot_i4i8 3.41 -> 7.25 GB/s (2.13x)
Rename glm.c → colibri.c and extract four self-contained modules
into header-only files (same pattern as st.h/tier.h/grammar.h):
quant.h (672 lines) — SIMD matmul kernels, quantization
sample.h (143 lines) — RNG, top-p sampling, stop-set
kv_persist.h (121 lines) — .coli_kv disk persistence
telemetry.h (189 lines) — dashboard protocol, stats, usage
Main engine file shrinks from 6588 to 5396 lines (−18%).
Build system: primary target is now colibri$(EXE); `make glm`
remains as a phony alias for backward compat. CI, setup.sh,
coli CLI, and all 10 test files that include the engine are
updated. make check passes (C + Python, 73 tests, zero warnings).
