A model's revision is published by administration and checked against on
every inference request. Those were computed by separate code: the
request path resolves through the loader, while each publisher hashed
whatever ModelConfig it happened to hold. By then SetDefaults had folded
in the GGUF guess and app-level options, so the published value was one
no request would ever carry and the model became unroutable until the
row was deleted by hand.
Fixing the publishers one at a time did not hold. Three rounds each
found another: the startup resync, then a saved edit and a toggle, then
a rename and the peer-change path.
ModelConfigLoader.RevisionFor is now the only way to obtain a revision,
and the raw hash is unexported, so a caller outside this package cannot
hash a config it holds. A publisher and a request agree by construction
rather than by two implementations happening to match.
The request path no longer falls back to hashing its merged config
either: an unstamped config is routed without a revision rather than
with a wrong one.

In distributed mode the admin model endpoints (/models/edit, /models/import,
/models/toggle-state and the PATCH config-json endpoint) wrote the YAML to the
shared models dir but reloaded only the local replica's in-memory
ModelConfigLoader. With multiple frontend replicas behind one service, a save
landed on whichever replica handled the request; peers kept serving their stale
in-memory view, so a load-balanced request was a coin-flip between old and new
config (a created alias visible on one replica and missing on the other, an
edited alias target diverging, etc.).
The NATS cache-invalidation channel (SubjectCacheInvalidateModels +
OnModelsChanged) already existed for the gallery install/delete path; these
admin endpoints simply never published on it. Wire them up via a new
GalleryService.BroadcastModelsChanged helper (no-op in standalone mode).
Also fix delete propagation: LoadModelConfigsFromPath is additive and never
drops an entry whose file is gone, so the subscriber hook (which only reloaded
from disk) could not propagate a removal. ApplyRemoteChange now honors the
event op - pruning the element on "delete" and reloading otherwise - and shuts
down any running instance of the affected model so the new config takes effect.
This closes the same latent gap on the gallery delete path.
