perf: switch to bfloat16 precision for memory efficiency

Changes:
- Default dtype: float32 → bfloat16 (50% memory reduction)
- Model memory: 16GB → ~8GB expected
- Enables 615-feature inference on L4 GPU (24GB VRAM)
- torch.inference_mode() + model.eval() + bfloat16 = full optimization stack

Memory calculation:
- Model (bfloat16): ~8GB
- Attention forward pass: 12.44GB
- Total: ~20.5GB < 24GB L4 capacity
