// Predict maps to the blocking vllm_complete; PredictStream maps to
// vllm_complete_stream, whose per-delta C callback bridges into the gRPC
// stream channel. Concurrent calls are intentional: every completion entry
// point submits into the engine's shared AsyncLLM scheduler, so parallel
// LocalAI requests batch continuously inside the engine (the reason this
// backend embeds base.Base and not base.SingleThread).
