- Replace hand-rolled BaseConfig (from_dict/to_dict/_coerce/_unwrap_optional) with pydantic.dataclasses
- from_dict now uses cls(**d), to_dict uses dataclasses.asdict + json.dumps filter
- TrainConfig: required fields are now truly required (no default=None), delete manual validate()/__post_init__
- Remove dead required() helper and metadata={'help': ...} annotations
- Fix gradient_checkpointing_modules type from List[str] to List[type]
- Add pydantic>=2.0 as direct dependency in pyproject.toml
- Add numpy-style Parameters docstrings to all config classes
- Enable use_attribute_docstrings in BaseConfig for schema generation
- LoRAConfig also migrated to pydantic dataclass
When `inject_lora()` replaces Linear layers with LoRALinear after the model
has been moved to CUDA, the new lora_A and lora_B parameters were always
created on CPU, causing a device mismatch error during the forward pass.
Now lora_A and lora_B are created on the same device and dtype as the
parent weight, matching the model's current device.

- Add KVCache/CacheView abstract base classes in cache.py
- Add ContiguousCache (contiguous per-slot buffer, default) alongside PageCache (paged, renamed from old KVCache)
- Merge make_table_tensor + bind into bind_tasks on KVCache interface
- Remove task_cached/task_record_hashes from base class (PageCache-only)
- Scheduler: decode all position groups instead of just the largest (eliminates 63% group skip rate)
- Scheduler: accept optional cache param for swapping implementations
- Model layer type hints use CacheView base class
- Batch 1-32: 1-7% speedup from eliminating Storage.gather overhead
- All 183 inference tests pass
