Cache element types to eliminate allocations in 32Mixed methods

- Cache T32 (Float32/ComplexF32) and Torig types in init_cacheval
- Use cached types instead of runtime eltype() checks in solve!
- Change inheritance from AbstractFactorization to AbstractDenseFactorization for CPU mixed methods
- Add mixed precision methods to allocation tests

This eliminates all type checking allocations during solve!, achieving true zero-allocation solves.
