Refactor train.py into giant/training/ around a metrics collector
Every metric name used to exist in four places: the dict keys each
StageTrainer returned, the hardcoded _metrics_fields() column list, the
~110-line metrics_row assembly in train(), and the tqdm/summary
formatting. The two had to be kept in exact correspondence by hand or
csv.DictWriter would raise.

Each metric is now declared once, as a MetricSpec on the trainer that
computes it. MetricsCollector derives the CSV header and W&B payload from
those declarations and owns all accumulation, so train() no longer carries
a running sum, and every isinstance(tr, WGANStageTrainer) branch is gone —
replaced by four trainer hooks (batch_loss, summary, val_objective,
supports_val_loss).

giant/train.py (1875 lines) becomes giant/training/:
  trainers.py       StageSpec + shared StageTrainer base + the two subclasses
  metrics.py        MetricSpec, MetricsCollector
  stage2_inputs.py  the pure AR/teacher-forcing tensor helpers, moved verbatim
  loop.py           train() (225 lines, was ~514) + graceful shutdown
  checkpoint.py     build/load, lifted out of train()'s closures

The trainers shared ~15 identical constructor arguments and copy-pasted
their cosine-warmup lambda, EMA setup, state_dict/load_state_dict,
resume_lr and train_mode/eval_mode. StageSpec resolves one stage's config
once (constructors go from 24 and 22 keyword arguments to (spec, model,
device)), the base class holds the rest, and build_stage_trainers drops
from ~100 lines to 15.

Metric columns are renamed to a uniform stage/split/metric scheme
(stage1/train/loss, stage2/train/d_loss, stage1/lr, stage1/router/entropy,
val/loss, ...). Old metrics.csv files and W&B history are not comparable.
The checkpoint format is unchanged.

BEHAVIOR CHANGE — WGAN best-checkpoint selection. The old code meant to
score a WGAN stage on its marginal KL, but the guard
`{n: kl for n in wgan_names if n not in val_loss_per_stage}` could never
fire: val_loss_per_stage was pre-seeded with 0.0 for every stage, so a
WGAN stage contributed a flat 0.0 and the KL was written to metrics.csv
without ever influencing best.pt. val_objective now returns it as
intended. On the test harness's default flow+wgan config val_loss went
from 2.182 (stage 1 only) to 15.137 (stage 1 + KL 12.954), and which epoch
won changed. Runs before this commit picked their best checkpoint on the
non-adversarial stages alone. Written up in docs/v0.3.0-followups.md.

Verified: 699 tests pass; ruff, ruff format and ty clean. Baseline-vs-
refactor metrics.csv compared across five configs (flow+wgan, AR+onehot,
routed, both-flow, AR-flow) — every comparable value bit-identical except
val/loss where the fix applies. Resume appends without a duplicate header
and reproduces a HEAD worktree's per-epoch losses and LRs exactly across
the resume boundary. A refactored last.pt loads through
cli.py:_load_model_weights in both raw and ema modes.
