fix(sglang): force AVX-512 CXXFLAGS and disable CI e2e job

sgl-kernel's shm.cpp uses __m512 AVX-512 intrinsics unconditionally;
-march=native fails on CI runners without AVX-512 in /proc/cpuinfo.
Force -march=sapphirerapids so the build always succeeds, matching
sglang upstream's docker/xeon.Dockerfile recipe.

The resulting binary still requires an AVX-512 capable CPU at runtime,
so disable tests-sglang-grpc in test-extra.yml for the same reason
tests-vllm-grpc is disabled. Local runs with make test-extra-backend-sglang
still work on hosts with the right SIMD baseline.
