Pop prompt token ids forwarded for decode-side reuse, if any.

Disaggregated serving carries the prefill stage's ids in kv_transfer_params so the decode stage can skip re-tokenizing. Removing the key keeps the id list out of the engine's sampling metadata.

Returns None without checking the ids when echo is set or messages has non-text content, since both need messages to be rendered. Otherwise raises VLLMValidationError if the ids are malformed or out of vocabulary.
