dflash : clarify output logging of target_layer_ids (#27013)
This commit tries to make the logging of target_layer_ids a bit clearer
and easier to read.

Currently the output generated looks like this:
```console
0.00.468.624 D load_arch_hparams: DFlash extract_layers = [0.00.468.626 D 2, 0.00.468.626 D 6, 0.00.468.626 D 20,
  0.00.468.626 D 30, 0.00.468.627 D 42, 0.00.468.627 D 520.00.468.627 D ]
```
With the changes in the commit the output will be:
```console
0.00.522.765 D load_arch_hparams: DFlash extract_layers = [2, 6, 20, 30, 42, 52]
```

llama.cpp

llama

Quick start

A few options to get llama.cpp installed on your machine:

Once installed:

# Download and run a model directly from Hugging Face
llama cli -hf ggml-org/Qwen3.5-0.8B-GGUF

# Launch OpenAI-compatible API server
llama serve -hf ggml-org/Qwen3.5-0.8B-GGUF
VLM session with `llama cli` VLM session with llama cli Built-in web UI against `llama serve` running Qwen 3.6 Built-in web UI against llama serve

Description

The main goal of llama.cpp is to enable LLM (and VLM) inference with minimal setup and state-of-the-art performance on a wide range of hardware - locally and in the cloud.

  • Plain C/C++ implementation without any dependencies
  • Apple silicon is a first-class citizen - optimized via ARM NEON, Accelerate and Metal frameworks
  • AVX, AVX2, AVX512 and AMX support for x86 architectures
  • RVV, ZVFH, ZFH, ZICBOP and ZIHINTPAUSE support for RISC-V architectures
  • 1.5-bit, 2-bit, 3-bit, 4-bit, 5-bit, 6-bit, and 8-bit integer quantization for faster inference and reduced memory use
  • Custom CUDA kernels for running LLMs on NVIDIA GPUs (support for AMD GPUs via HIP and Moore Threads GPUs via MUSA)
  • Vulkan and SYCL backend support
  • CPU+GPU hybrid inference to partially accelerate models larger than the total VRAM capacity

The llama.cpp project is build on top of the ggml library.
