mudler's LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 29899cd1e0 fix(ui): size model fit against the cluster and move node labels into the selector (#11765)
* fix(ui): move node labels into the scheduling selector field

The scheduling page kept a node-label browser open above the rules
whether or not anyone was writing one, while the field that actually
needs labels, the rule's node selector, was two bare text inputs with no
hint of what the cluster reports.

The browser is gone. The selector's key input now completes against the
label keys the cluster uses, and the value input offers only the values
that key takes. The roster already loads for the page, so the
suggestions cost no request, and a roster that fails to load costs the
admin the hints and nothing else.

Suggestions stay suggestions: a key no node reports yet still commits as
typed, which is how an admin writes a rule before labelling the nodes
for it.

* fix(distributed): size model fit against the cluster, not the frontend

The models page asked the frontend how much memory a model may occupy.
In distributed mode the frontend is usually a GPU-less pod while every
model runs on a worker, so a fleet of GPU nodes was told it could only
run the smallest CPU build. The variant picker's fits flag and its
auto-selection came from the same place, as did the hardware
recommendations.

The registry now reports the largest single healthy backend node. The
largest node, not the fleet total: a model loads into one node, so four
16GB workers are not a home for a 40GB model. An operator-set VRAM
budget caps a node's contribution, because the scheduler refuses a load
above that ceiling anyway, and a GPU node beats a CPU node holding more
system RAM.

GET /api/resources and GET /api/models carry this as an additional
cluster object. Their aggregate and ram fields keep reporting the
frontend's own hardware, which is what the resource monitor shows.
Variant selection judges backends against the union of the capabilities
present in the cluster, the way backend discovery already did.

Every path degrades to the local host: no cluster object in single-node
mode, and none when the registry cannot be read, so a hiccup narrows the
answer back to single-node behaviour rather than marking the whole
catalog too large.

The verdicts now name the node they belong to, since a model fits
somewhere or nowhere.
