rpc : do not wait for response when sending RPC_CMD_SET_TENSOR (llama/12943)

RPC_CMD_SET_TENSOR always returns an empty response and we send this 4
times per token. We can improve TG speed if we don't wait for this empty
response.

The performance impact of this change depends on the network latency.
