fix: implement Viterbi SentencePiece encoding (replaces greedy)#3
Conversation
The greedy longest-match approach in sentencePieceEncode produced suboptimal tokenization for SentencePiece unigram models (e.g., Mistral 7B). Replace it with Viterbi dynamic programming that finds the segmentation maximizing the sum of log-probability scores. Also adds: - Byte fallback encoding/decoding via <0xNN> tokens for chars not in vocab - decodeSentencePieceBytes for proper round-trip of byte fallback tokens - Tests: Viterbi vs greedy, byte fallback, sentence round-trip, edge cases

Viterbi DP for globally optimal tokenization. Byte fallback via <0xNN>. Fixes Mistral garbage output. 6 new tests.
