quantShapeToByteShape

Convert a logical element shape to a physical byte shape for quantized storage.

The last dimension (row size) must be a multiple of the quantization block size. It is replaced by (row / blockSize) * typeSize to reflect the packed byte layout.

Example: Q4_K with shape 32, 256 → 32, 144 (256/256 * 144)

Return

Physical byte dimensions

Parameters

shape

Logical element dimensions

quantType

The quantization format

Throws

if the last dimension is not block-aligned
