docs(radiance): reference the engine's options, plugins and conversion

Nine pages under LLM/ document the upstream radiance engine at 8da043c:
- engine shape, plugin model, RAD2 container, ABI and environment
- every serve flag grouped with defaults and the law behind each knob
- the HTTP surface, request fields and refusal classes
- rad-convert, the recipe language, quantisers, imports, reuse, rad-export, KL scoring
- the (arch id, quant) family table and the recipe of record per model
- kernel/quantiser plugin authoring, encodings, build and checks
- architecture plugin authoring: declare, step, probe, lane and media rules
- rad-info/radbench/radtune and the shell harnesses
- the container contract, host prerequisites, readiness and restart triage

Also completes the dangling Related line on the frank-archon endpoint page.
