T145/ZEUS-8B-V7

ZEUS 8B 🌩️ V7

This merge seeks to improve upon the successful V2 model by using a more uncensored Llama 3.1 model over Lexi, and increasing the density to 1.0 from 0.8. Merges with higher densities have shown consistent improvement, and an earlier Evolve Merge test showed that the best density with this model configuration was at 1.0.
