feat: auto-checkpoint on SIGTERM/SIGINT with DDP support

- Register SIGTERM/SIGINT handlers in training loop, set stop flag on signal
- Check stop_requested at each epoch/batch boundary, break and call on_error to save checkpoint
- LocalStrategy parent forwards signal to child processes via terminate(), waits up to 600s for graceful exit
- TrainContext gains threading.Event-based stop_requested/request_stop
- Tests verify SIGTERM/SIGINT trigger checkpoint save with exit code 0, works on both CPU and GPU
