Ollama v0.30.0-rc23: "directly support llama.cpp" & "compatibility with GGUF"

Ollama released version 0.30.0-rc23, a pre-release that shifts the software's architecture to directly support llama.cpp instead of building on top of GGML, and adds compatibility with the GGUF file format. The update also integrates MLX to accelerate model inference on Apple Silicon. The pre-release does not yet support the `laguna-xs.2` and `llama3.2-vision` models.
