tests: tolerate a shared pool abort in test_completion_unified (#28759 )

The expected success table holds when the four requests enter the shared pool together. On a loaded runner they are admitted tens of milliseconds apart, the slot lifetimes overlap differently and the pool overflows while a short request is still resident. The decode failure aborts every slot, so a request the table marks as successful comes back with the context error instead of its generation. Such a request now passes on that error too, while any other status, a different error or a truncated generation still fails the test.

+## Build profiling
+This page is a working document for analyzing the current build and try to
+identify ways to improve the build time.
+
+### Requirements
+The profiling script requires clang to be used as the compiler tool chain and
+also requires that ClangBuildAnalyzer is installed.
+
+Mac:
+```console
+brew install clang-build-analyzer
+```
+
+Linux:
+```console
+git clone https://github.com/aras-p/ClangBuildAnalyzer.git
+cd ClangBuildAnalyzer
+cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+cmake --build build -j$(nproc)
+sudo cp build/ClangBuildAnalyzer /usr/local/bin/
+```
+
+Windows: install LLVM/clang and Ninja (e.g. via the
+[LLVM releases page](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases) and
+`winget install Ninja-build.Ninja`), then build ClangBuildAnalyzer the same
+way as on Linux:
+```console
+git clone https://github.com/aras-p/ClangBuildAnalyzer.git
+cd ClangBuildAnalyzer
+cmake -B build -G Ninja -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+cmake --build build --config Release
+```
+Then add `ClangBuildAnalyzer\build` to `PATH`.
+
+### Usage
+Mac/Linux:
+```console
+$ ./scripts/build-profile.sh
+```
+
+Windows:
+```console
+> .\scripts\build-profile.ps1
+```
+
+Both accept `--full`/`-Full` (include Server, Tools, and Tests) and a jobs
+override (`-jN` / `-Jobs N`).
+
+Note: on Windows, `cmake` defaults to the Visual Studio generator, which
+ignores `CMAKE_C_COMPILER`/`CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER` and silently falls back to
+MSVC. `build-profile.ps1` passes `-G Ninja` so clang is actually used, this
+is required on ARM64.

+headers — each PCH target adds one extra TU for the precompilation step itself.

+// test-fusion: verify the backend fusion logic against a per-device baseline.
+//
+// for every dummy model generated by test-llama-archs, the tool runs the model on a single
+// device with fusion enabled and disabled, and reports:
+//   - the per-fusion-type counters for each mode (prefill / decode, merged into "any" when the
+//     per-graph counts match)
+//   - the NMSE between the fused and unfused logits
+//   - the NMSE between the device and a CPU reference
+//
+// the per-fusion-type counters are compared against a per-device baseline file (CSV) so a
+// fusion pattern that silently stops matching (or fires when it should not) is caught as a
+// regression.
+//
+// usage:
+//   test-fusion --models DIR --device MTL0 --record baseline.csv   # generate a baseline
+//   test-fusion --models DIR --device MTL0 --check  baseline.csv   # validate against it
+//   test-fusion --model FILE --device MTL0 --check  baseline.csv   # validate a single model
