"""T2.7 · Export packed ternary students to llama.cpp GGUF. Ternary weights go out as mainline llama.cpp's Q2_0: blocks of 64 values, an fp16 scale and 2-bit codes, where the stored value q+1 means q·d (00 = −1, 01 = 0, 10 = +1). Our packing (`quant.ternary.pack_2bit`) uses the same bit layout, and our groups are 128 wide, so each block takes 16 of our code bytes unchanged and its group's scale, written twice per group. The export is lossless as long as every scale is an fp16 normal (≥6.1e-5; checked). D-51's N-bit experts go out as the GGUF type whose grid they were trained on (`quant.ternary.GRIDS`): int2 as Q2_0 (the same 2-bit packing, groups of 64, so one block per group with its signed scale), int4 as Q4_0, int3 as Q3_K with its down projection as Q4_0 (rows of 384 cannot be Q3_K). Their packers are below; gguf-py has Q4_0's quantiser and both types' dequantisers, and `check_round_trip` dequantises with gguf-py. Everything else is written as the student holds it: bf16 matrices as BF16 (their bytes copied), and 1-D norms and the router as F32, as llama.cpp's converter writes them. Metadata (tokenizer, hyperparameters, chat template) comes from a template GGUF of the same architecture made by llama.cpp's `convert_hf_to_gguf.py`, whose tensor list and order the export follows.
