ViperEkura c6a82a5029 refactor: align linear backward dtype with weight
- cast gradients and inputs to weight.dtype instead of hardcoded bf16
- single code path covers bf16 and fp32 models, no branch needed
- gradient dtype now matches the leaf parameter dtype exactly

"""FP8 linear dispatch: replace aten::linear on the CUDA key, no model changes.
``F.linear`` -> ``aten::linear`` -> dispatcher -> this CUDA impl (fp8 when
enabled) or the original composite implementation via ``redispatch``.
Enabling is per-thread; model code stays untouched.
