977f663cb0 fix(trl): disable inline GRPO reward code by default (RCE, #11015) (#11068)
fix(trl): disable inline GRPO reward code by default (RCE)

POST /api/fine-tuning/jobs accepts reward_functions[].code, an inline Python
body, and compile_inline_reward() execs it against a restricted-builtins
allowlist (_SAFE_BUILTINS). That allowlist is not a security boundary:
().__class__.__bases__[0].__subclasses__() reaches os._wrap_close and thus
os.system, giving arbitrary code execution. The fine-tuning endpoint is
unauthenticated by default, so any caller could run code on the host.

Hardening the allowlist is a losing game against CPython introspection, so
inline reward code is now refused unless the operator explicitly opts in with
LOCALAI_TRL_ALLOW_INLINE_REWARD=true on the backend. Builtin reward functions
are unaffected. The gate lives in build_reward_functions(), the single point
all inline specs flow through. Docs updated to stop describing the allowlist as
a sandbox and to document the opt-in.

Fixes #11015

* feat(experimental): add fine-tuning endpoint and TRL support

This changeset defines new GRPC signatues for Fine tuning backends, and
add TRL backend as initial fine-tuning engine. This implementation also
supports exporting to GGUF and automatically importing it to LocalAI
after fine-tuning.
