Ollama v0.35.1-rc0 Adds Explicit Model Capability Declarations

Ollama released v0.35.1-rc0, introducing CAPABILITY declarations to Modelfiles and an additive capabilities field to create requests1. The release preserves declarations across GGUF and Safetensors creation, inheritance, and Modelfile export. System One requests now require a decision capability before scheduling, replacing prior reliance on Qwen architecture or renderer metadata matching. The GGUF-only scoring restriction on main is retained until separate MLX runtime work lands. The changes are extracted from the capability foundation on the system_one_mlx branch, with MLX scoring and manifest-list changes kept intentionally separate.
