Subject: [PATCH] feat: switch from deprecated mistralrs-server to mistralrs
 CLI

Build the mistralrs binary (CLI) instead of the deprecated
mistralrs-server. The RPM still installs as /usr/bin/mistralrs-server
for backwards compatibility. The systemd unit now invokes
`mistralrs-server serve` to use the CLI's serve subcommand.
