Add apex-quant (MoE per-tensor/per-layer quantization recipe) to the "Backends built by us" section as a note after the engines table, since it is a quantization recipe rather than a native inference engine. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

Adds apex-quant to the Backends built by us section of the README.
It is placed as a short note right after the engines table (rather than inside it) because apex-quant is a per-tensor/per-layer quantization recipe for MoE models, not a native inference engine. The note highlights that it exploits MoE structural sparsity to produce GGUFs matching or beating Q8_0 quality, and runs out of the box on stock llama.cpp.
