Move the dspy_cli.server.runner import from module level to inside the serve() function. This avoids loading dspy (~6s) when running `dspy-cli --help`. Before: 5.79s After: 0.10s Also update test to patch at source module instead of local name. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
