mlxrunner: Fix panic on full KV cache hit

When the entire prompt was already cached (e.g. repeated prompt),
findRemaining returned an empty slice, causing FromValues to panic
on an index-out-of-range accessing a zero-length byte slice.

Fix by always keeping at least one token to re-evaluate so the
pipeline can seed token generation. Also reject empty prompts
early rather than panicking.
