Add VLLM_SCHED_PREFILL_KVC_FREEPCT feature to schedule prefill only when percentage of kv cache is free.
To enable this feature export VLLM_SCHED_PREFILL_KVC_FREEPCT= (float num>0.0).
This helps in large Batch Size offline inference scenarios where prefills can be batched and scheduled when a certain percentage of KV cache is free. If KV cache is below VLLM_SCHED_PREFILL_KVC_FREEPCT, no prefills will be scheduled and decode gets priority. As sequences finish decode, kv cache gets freed up.
