fix(florence2): wrap Florence2Run call in torch.inference_mode() — match ComfyUI executor

ROOT CAUSE FOUND (after the do_sample/beams hypothesis was wrong):

ComfyUI's prompt executor wraps every node call in 'with torch.inference_mode():'
(ComfyUI/execution.py:732). When standalone kijai Florence2Run runs via that
executor, it inherits inference_mode. Our _call_node helper invokes nodes
directly without that wrapper, so Florence2Run.encode() runs with autograd
machinery active — past_key_values can't be released between beam-search steps,
intermediate activations accumulate, peak VRAM blew up to 29-31GB on a 16GB
card vs <5GB on the same image in the standalone workflow.

torch.inference_mode() is STRICTER than torch.no_grad(): no version counters,
no autograd graph references, true read-only mode. This is what allows HF
generate()'s beam-search KV cache to actually free intermediate state.

Fix: wrap the Florence2 detect _call_node in 'with torch.inference_mode():'
exactly as ComfyUI's executor does. Three-line edit.

Tests: 118/118 pass.

Bystander commit 8607d42 (unload_all_models() before detect) is now likely
unnecessary since Florence2 can fit alongside SDXL+CLIP+VAE in 16GB at its
actual ~5GB peak. Will revert if confirmed in next run.
