spec: build every draft worker from a draft ServerArgs copy (#33335)

EAGLEWorkerV2, StandaloneWorkerV2, MultiLayerEagleWorkerV2 and
FrozenKVMTPWorkerV2 wrote the draft's context_length onto the ServerArgs
instance they share with the target worker, and the scheduler wrote the draft's
load_format onto that same object just before creating them. The target's config
carried draft values from then on, and anything constructed later in the process
inherited them.

Scheduler.maybe_init_draft_worker now makes one draft copy through
draft_server_args_copy() and hands it to both the worker factory and the worker,
so every algorithm gets it — the four built-ins, dflash/dspark (which deepcopy
it again inside build_draft_tp_worker), and anything registered through
SpeculativeAlgorithm.register. The copy starts from the config the process
resolved, not from the pristine seed, so load-time overrides made before this
point (the chunked-prefix gate, the SM100 GDN prefill default) are part of what
the draft sees; context_length and load_format are applied on top.

The construction runs under a preserved publish of that copy, the shape
build_draft_tp_worker already used. Weight loading reads the bags rather than the
instance it was handed — Inkling's ModelOpt scale normalization keys on
load_format — so the draft has to be built with its own config published, and
the target's is back in the slot when construction returns.

The EAGLE hot-token-map write is deleted, not moved. init_token_map runs from
alloc_memory_pool, long after the draft's TpModelWorker built its ModelConfig,
and hot_vocab_size is only ever read off model_config.hf_config, which
json_model_override_args reaches at ModelConfig construction. The write could not
affect the draft model; only the shared instance saw it. hot_token_id is
unchanged, so a draft checkpoint that declares hot_vocab_size behaves as before.

Tests: draft_server_args_copy carries the target context_length, a configured
draft load_format and any load-time override while leaving the target's instance
alone; and the scheduler handoff pins that the factory and the worker both
receive the copy, that the copy is the published config during construction, and
that the target's is restored afterwards.

Writer ratchet 31 -> 26.

## Hard-won pitfalls (check these before/while refactoring)
- **Moving code drops first-line guards**: early returns (`if self.is_draft_worker: return`)
are the easiest thing to lose when relocating a method body. Only drafts built through
`build_draft_tp_worker()` get private bags (a preserved publish of the rewritten copy);
drafts constructed directly with `is_draft_worker=True` skip publish and **share the
target's bags** — a draft-side write there poisons the target.
are the easiest thing to lose when relocating a method body. Every draft is built
under a preserved publish of its own config: the scheduler makes the copy with
`draft_server_args_copy()` (seeded from the resolved config, so load-time overrides
carry) and publishes it around the worker factory, and `build_draft_tp_worker()`
nests the same shape for dflash / dspark. The publish ends when construction does —
anything the draft reads later (`alloc_memory_pool`, `init_attention_backends`,
cuda-graph capture) is back on the target's bags.
- **Registry-completeness timing**: a gate that consults an extensible list is only correct
after the registrars ran (platform `init_backend()` at module import). See "load-time vs
resolution-time".
