fix(test): disable torch.compile in MTP num_speculative_steps test (#714)

## Summary

- Fix flaky `TestMTPParams::test_varying_num_speculative_steps` by
disabling `torch.compile` on the model instance for this parametrized
test
- Add `torch_compile` parameter to `make_mtp_model()` test helper to
support unwrapping the dynamo-compiled forward

## Root cause

The MTP forward method is wrapped with `torch.compile` at class
definition time. When `test_varying_num_speculative_steps` runs
parametrized cases `[1, 2, 5]` in the same process, `torch.compile`
first traces the forward loop with `effective_steps=1`. Subsequent cases
trigger recompilation for different loop iteration counts, and the
inductor-generated kernels produce NaN losses in bfloat16 on the tiny
test model.

Test ordering across the full CI suite determines the initial compile
cache state (e.g. whether `TestTraining` MTP tests with
`effective_steps=3` ran first), making the failure flaky rather than
consistent.

Evidence:
- Each parametrized case passes **in isolation**
- Running in reversed order `[5, 2, 1]` passes (larger loop compiles
first, smaller recompilations are stable)
- `TORCH_COMPILE_DISABLE=1` → all pass
- `float32` instead of `bfloat16` → 0/60 failures across 20 seeds

## Validation

| | Failures | Runs |
|---|---|---|
| **Without fix** | 16/30 | 8 of 10 runs had failures |
| **With fix** | 0/30 | 10 of 10 runs clean |

## Test plan

- [x] `test_varying_num_speculative_steps[1]` passes
- [x] `test_varying_num_speculative_steps[2]` passes
- [x] `test_varying_num_speculative_steps[5]` passes
- [x] Full `test_model_forward.py` suite passes (134 tests)
- [x] `make quality` (ruff) passes
