Viktor Barzin 74819d4061 feat(nvidia): GPU VRAM budget + watchdog to stop T4 overallocation
The single time-sliced Tesla T4 has no per-tenant memory isolation, so its
~9 GPU workloads can collectively overallocate VRAM. On 2026-06-02 immich-ml's
onnxruntime arena grew to 10.7 GB and silently starved llama-swap, breaking
recruiter-responder for ~5h. Viktor asked for memory protection so we don't
overallocate GPU memory, and chose to do it at the scheduling level (no
device-plugin swap) after weighing HAMi and MPS.

Make the scheduler VRAM-aware and add runtime teeth, all repo-native,
time-slicing untouched:
- Advertise a node extended resource viktorbarzin.me/gpumem (~14000 MiB) via a
  reconcile null_resource (immediate, apply-time) + hourly re-assert CronJob.
- Each always-on GPU tenant declares a gpumem budget (immich-ml 3000,
  llama-swap 5000, frigate 2000, immich-server 1800, portal-stt 1500; sum 13300
  <= advertised) so the scheduler refuses to co-schedule past the card
  (overflow -> Pending).
- gpu-vram-watchdog Deployment recycles the biggest over-budget tenant ONLY when
  actual free VRAM < floor. Ships DRY_RUN=true (observe-then-enforce); flip to
  false after a few cycles look right.
- Prometheus alerts GPUVRAMLow / GPUVRAMTelemetryDown / GPUVRAMWatchdogDown --
  the 2026-06-02 post-mortem's never-built free-VRAM follow-up.
- Docs: ADR-0016 (records why HAMi/MPS were rejected), CONTEXT.md GPU-sharing
  glossary; fix the stale "whole T4 / scale immich-ml to 0" llama-cpp comment.

HITL GPU-node change: apply nvidia FIRST (advertise gpumem), verify the node
shows the capacity, THEN the consumer stacks -- the cutover bounces GPU pods.
