docs: KVC v1-v4 debug journey + raise session soft_cap to 16
Document the iterative debugging from v1 (broken KVC) through v4
(routing fixed + session cap raised), with code-level analysis of
the two main bugs encountered:
1. v2 root cause (mis-diagnosed previously as `allow_local_prefill`):
`--policy default` for KVC mechanism caused replay's round-robin
policy and the PD router's round-robin to diverge, sending requests
with `session_params` to a D worker that did not have the session
open. Resulted in 56-61% truncation with finish_reason
"session id X does not exist".
Fix: use `--policy kv-aware` (sweep_tp1_v3_kvaware.sh) so replay
emits `x-smg-target-worker` and PD router uses consistent_hashing.
2. v3 new bottleneck: `pd-router-fallback-large-append-session-cap`
dominated 52-65% of requests. Root cause was hardcoded
`min(4, ...)` in `_decode_session_soft_cap`. With 7 D workers x 4
sessions = 28 slots for 52 trace sessions, ~24 sessions starved
permanently (bimodal direct-to-D rate of 0% or 99%).
Fix: raise the cap to 16 (replay.py).
Also includes the v3 finding that direct-to-d-session path P50=0.495s
and TTFT P50=0.043s already beats the 8-way DP baseline (0.65s/0.093s)
- the KVC core mechanism works when fallback paths are avoided.
