Follow-up from #3907 review comments: MindtPy currently routes continuous short-circuit QP/QCP solves through the existing APPSI and legacy solver capability logic. Reviewers noted that MindtPy should eventually move away from relying on APPSI-specific behavior and toward the newer contrib.solver interfaces, including the HiGHS quadratic support now available there.
This is intentionally separate from #3907 so that PR can remain focused on preserving current direct-solve behavior for models without discrete variables.
