💡 "ollama --verify" to validate a model

[adriens]

❔ About

Sometimes, me may only need to validate than we can compile a model with ollama...without having to download the whole base model.

👉 In a few words, this would help telling, very fast and very easily is a ollama modelfile could be used. 👈

💡 Feature request

Implement ollama --verify which exits with success if:

• ✔️ the file is well formated
• ✔️ the base image exists

💰 Benefits

• Make it possible to implement code validation with CI... and then protect source code
• Save resources (storage, CPU) while trying to validate a ollama modelfile (especially on GH Actions)
