Move decode attention computation from attention.py to SparsePolicy:
- Add compute_chunked_decode abstract method to SparsePolicy base class
- Implement compute_chunked_decode in FullAttentionPolicy with:
- Ring buffer pipeline (_decode_ring_buffer_pipeline)
- Cross-layer pipeline (_decode_with_layer_pipeline)
- Decode buffer handling
- Simplify _chunked_decode_attention to only validate and delegate
- Remove _decode_ring_buffer_pipeline and _decode_with_layer_pipeline from attention.py
- Add supports_decode check for policy validation
This completes the SparsePolicy v5 refactoring where both prefill and
decode paths now delegate all computation to the sparse policy.

Move all chunked prefill attention computation from attention.py to
SparsePolicy.compute_chunked_attention(). This is the v4 architecture
refactoring for sparse attention policies.
Changes:
- Add compute_chunked_attention abstract method to SparsePolicy base
- Add offload_engine parameter to select_blocks for policies needing
KV access during block selection
- Implement compute_chunked_attention in FullAttentionPolicy with
complete ring buffer pipeline logic
- Simplify attention.py to delegate all chunked prefill to policy
- Remove redundant _sync_load_previous_chunks and
_ring_buffer_pipeline_load methods from Attention class
Test: test_needle.py --enable-offload PASSED
