[SYCL] Fix reorder MMVQ assert on unaligned vocab sizes (#22035)

• [SYCL] Fix reorder MMVQ assert on unaligned vocab sizes

The reorder mul_mat_vec_q dispatchers for Q4_0, Q8_0, Q4_K, and Q6_K
asserted that block_num_y was a multiple of 16 subgroups. Models with
a vocab size not divisible by 16 (for example HY-MT at 120818) aborted
on model load when the output projection tripped the assert.

I replaced the assert with padding: block_num_y now rounds up to a
whole number of subgroup-sized workgroups. The kernel already has the
row bounds check (if (row >= nrows) return;) so the extra padded
threads early-exit cleanly. Row values are uniform across a subgroup
so the collective reduce stays safe.

For aligned vocab sizes the padded block_num_y equals the old value,
so the kernel launch is identical and there is no regression.

Thanks to @arthw for flagging the relationship to #21527.

Fixes #22020.

• sycl: use WARP_SIZE for num_subgroups in reorder MMVQ launches

Replaces the hardcoded 16 with WARP_SIZE in the four reorder_mul_mat_vec
launch helpers (Q4_0, Q8_0, Q4_K, Q6_K). Compile-time no-op on the Intel
target where WARP_SIZE is 16, but makes the relationship to subgroup
size explicit. Per review by @NeoZhangJianyu on #22035.
