frank-small: pin VLLM_ATTENTION_BACKEND=TURBOQUANT

Gemma4's config hook force-selects TRITON_ATTN for the mixed 256/512
head dims whenever no backend is selected, and TRITON_ATTN rejects the
turboquant KV dtype (measured: 'kv_cache_dtype not supported', crash
loop). The TURBOQUANT backend accepts any head size and the
turboquant_* dtypes, and the Gemma4 MTP speculator carries the
target's selected backend through to the draft layers.

# size, the turboquant dtypes, and has the Ampere path, and the Gemma4 MTP
# speculator carries the target's selected backend through to the draft
