Purpose
Introduces lazy inference-engine lifecycle management for the FoundationModels adoption layer. Instead of CoreAILanguageModel holding a live engine from construction, engine load/unload is now owned by a new ModelResources type: lazy by default, loaded on first respond(...) (or explicitly via load()), borrowed per-generation, and releasable via unload(). This lets callers construct a model cheaply, query its on-disk footprint, and control when the (expensive) engine actually loads.
Changes
withEngine { }borrows the engine for the duration of a generation and defers teardown if anunload()races an active borrow. Shared per-configuration via a weak registry.CoreAIRunner.makeLanguageModel()hop).
