The old gate blocked offload when push_new (= input - cache_hit) < 20K,
which prevented migration of high-cache sessions — exactly the ones
that benefit most. After PD-sep, the target receives full KV via RDMA
and has the same cache as the source, so cache_hit is irrelevant to
the offload decision.
New gate: only check input_length >= heavy_threshold (request must be
HEAVY) and max_offload_inflight (concurrency cap). Let the cost model
decide whether the contention difference justifies migration.
