Ettore Di Giacinto 7dd3431040 docs(paged): promote TTFT/prefill + paged-pool burst-degradation bug (benchmark finding) ...

The final benchmark exposed TTFT as the weakest number (dense npl128 903s vs vLLM
6-18s, decode-first budget throttling burst-prefill) plus a concrete paged-pool
burst-degradation bug (post-burst low-npl prefill collapses 507->65 t/s; decode
unaffected). Highest-value serving fix; decode + memory already strong.
