feat: disable force eviction (#7725)

* feat: allow to set forcing backends eviction while requests are in flight

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat: try to make the request sit and retry if eviction couldn't be done

Otherwise calls that in order to pass would need to shutdown other
backends would just fail.

In this way instead we make the request sit and retry eviction until it
succeeds. The thresholds can be configured by the user.
