give eog an increasing (with length - per token, could be per
codepoint in future) bias, only after a configured amount generated
add to `sample_apply` an `n_remain` param, which is safer than having
logit_bias maintain state for how many times it's called (which
would lead to wrong assumptions e.g. when calling multiple times per
token).
see new command line options (incl a request 'after' instead of
'remain'):
-eog, --eog-bias-per-tok N when fewer than -start-eog-at-remain tokens are left to generate after
-n, add this bias eog for each subsequent token (default: 0.0)
-remain, --start-eog-at-remain N start applying -eog bias when this many tokens remain of the -n max
(default: 0.0)
-after, --start-eog-after N start applying -eog bias after this many tokens generated (default:
1000000000.0); whichever happens first between -remain and -after
applies
Verified that eog bias was effective at avoiding
overgeneration and is a reasonable supplement or alternative
to editing the prompt; a *constant* eog bias, already supported
in samplers, is likely to allow pathologically short outputs.
