/**
 * libmtmd: A library for multimodal support in llama.cpp.
 *
 * WARNING: This API is experimental and subject to many BREAKING CHANGES.
 *          Issues related to API usage may receive lower priority support.
 *
 * For the usage, see an example in mtmd-cli.cpp
 *
 * For contributors:
 * - Make sure the C API is aligned with the libllama C API (as in llama.h)
 * - Do not include model name (e.g., qwen, gemma) in the API, use generic terms instead
 * - Keep the API minimal, do not expose internal details unless necessary
 *
 * IMPORTANT: The mtmd module does NOT accept pull requests that are fully or predominantly AI-generated.
 * We encourage human contributors to ensure the quality and reliability of the codebase.
