Subject: [PATCH] feat(gallery): add Fara1.5 4B variants (#11479)

Add the smaller Fara1.5 computer-use model alongside the existing 9B and 27B gallery entries. Offer Q4_K_M and Q8_0 builds so LocalAI can select for memory or quality.

+    Fara1.5-4B is Microsoft's 4B-parameter multimodal computer-use agent for web browsers, fine-tuned from Qwen3.5-4B. It accepts screenshots and text, emits structured browser actions, supports a 262K-token context, and should be deployed with appropriate sandboxing and user-confirmation controls. This entry uses the recommended Q4_K_M GGUF quantization.
