llama.cpp router mode enables multi-model management without restarts

The llama.cpp router mode allows local LLM operators to manage multiple models, offering performance and control similar to services like Ollama. While it supports loading and unloading individual models, there isn't a direct API endpoint to unload all models simultaneously. Users can achieve this by first querying the router for all loaded models and then programmatically sending individual unload requests for each, a method that provides explicit control and avoids restarting the entire inference service.
