feat(ml): WAVE 29 DQN Codebase Cleanup & Refactoring Campaign

BREAKING CHANGES:
- Removed orphaned dqn.rs monolithic trainer (4,975 lines)
- Removed orphaned dqn_ensemble.rs module (816 lines)
- Removed orphaned tft.rs and tft_complete_int8_integration_test.rs
- TFT trainer split into modular directory structure

DQN Module Refactoring:
- Split trainers/dqn.rs into modular structure (config.rs, statistics.rs, trainer.rs)
- Fixed hyperopt 39D search space (continuous params only)
- Boolean flags (use_dueling, use_double_dqn, use_per, use_noisy_nets) are now FIXED architectural decisions
- use_distributional defaults to false (Candle BUG #36 - scatter_add gradient issues)

Clean Module Structure:
- ml/src/trainers/dqn/ directory with proper mod.rs exports
- ml/src/trainers/tft/ directory with config.rs, types.rs, model.rs, trainer.rs, tests.rs
- All P0 features validated: TD-error clamping, batch diversity, LR scheduler, priority staleness

Documentation:
- Added comprehensive docs in docs/codebase-cleanup/
- ADR-001 for DQN refactoring decisions
- Rainbow DQN component matrix and quick reference guides

Build Status: Compiles with zero errors

+# WAVE 26 P0.2: Batch Diversity Enforcement - Implementation Summary
+
+## Objective
+Prevent sampling the same experience twice in consecutive batches to improve gradient diversity and training stability.
+
+## Changes Made
+
+### 1. Added HashSet Tracking (`/home/jgrusewski/Work/foxhunt/ml/src/dqn/prioritized_replay.rs`)
+
+**Imports:**
+```rust
+use std::collections::HashSet;
+```
+
+**Struct Fields:**
+```rust
+pub struct PrioritizedReplayBuffer {
+    // ... existing fields ...
+
+    /// Tracks recently sampled indices to prevent duplicates (WAVE 26 P0.2)
+    recently_sampled: Arc<Mutex<HashSet<usize>>>,
+
+    /// Counter for cooldown management - cleared every 50 batches (WAVE 26 P0.2)
+    sample_counter: AtomicUsize,
+}
+```
+
+**Constructor:**
+```rust
+pub fn new(config: PrioritizedReplayConfig) -> Result<Self, MLError> {
+    // ...
+    Ok(Self {
+        // ... existing fields ...
+        recently_sampled: Arc::new(Mutex::new(HashSet::new())),
+        sample_counter: AtomicUsize::new(0),
+        config,
+    })
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Modified `sample()` Method
+
+**Rejection Sampling with Fallback:**
+```rust
+let mut recently_sampled = self.recently_sampled.lock();
+
+for _ in 0..batch_size {
+    // WAVE 26 P0.2: Batch diversity enforcement
+    let mut attempts = 0;
+    let max_attempts = 100;
+    let idx = loop {
+        let value = rng.gen::<f32>() * total_priority;
+        let sampled_idx = tree.sample(value)?;
+
+        // Check if this index was recently sampled
+        if !recently_sampled.contains(&sampled_idx) {
+            break sampled_idx;
+        }
+
+        attempts += 1;
+        if attempts >= max_attempts {
+            // Fallback: clear cooldown and use this sample
+            recently_sampled.clear();
+            break sampled_idx;
+        }
+    };
+
+    // ... process experience ...
+    recently_sampled.insert(idx);
+}
+
+// Clear cooldown every 50 batches
+let sample_count = self.sample_counter.fetch_add(1, Ordering::Relaxed);
+if sample_count % 50 == 49 {
+    recently_sampled.clear();
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Updated `clear()` Method
+
+**Reset Diversity Tracking:**
+```rust
+pub fn clear(&self) {
+    // ... existing clearing code ...
+
+    self.sample_counter.store(0, Ordering::Release);
+
+    // WAVE 26 P0.2: Clear diversity tracking
+    {
+        let mut recently_sampled = self.recently_sampled.lock();
+        recently_sampled.clear();
+    }
+
+    // ... reset metrics ...
+}
+```
+
+## Test Coverage
+
+### Test 1: `test_batch_diversity_no_duplicates`
+**Purpose:** Verify consecutive batches don't share indices
+**Setup:**
+- Buffer capacity: 200
+- Add 100 experiences
+- Sample 2 batches of 32 each
+
+**Validation:**
+```rust
+let set1: HashSet<_> = batch1_indices.iter().copied().collect();
+let set2: HashSet<_> = batch2_indices.iter().copied().collect();
+assert!(set1.is_disjoint(&set2));
+```
+
+### Test 2: `test_batch_diversity_cooldown_cleared_after_50_batches`
+**Purpose:** Verify cooldown resets after 50 batches
+**Setup:**
+- Buffer capacity: 500
+- Add 500 experiences
+- Sample 51 batches of 10 each
+
+**Validation:**
+- First 50 batches: all indices must be unique
+- 51st batch: can reuse indices (cooldown cleared)
+
+### Test 3: `test_batch_diversity_fallback_on_exhaustion`
+**Purpose:** Verify graceful fallback when buffer too small
+**Setup:**
+- Buffer capacity: 100
+- Add only 40 experiences
+- Sample 2 batches of 32 each
+
+**Validation:**
+- Both batches should succeed (no infinite loop)
+- Overlap is expected and acceptable
+- Fallback clears cooldown after 100 failed attempts
+
+## Algorithm Details
+
+### Rejection Sampling
+1. Sample index from prioritized distribution
+2. Check if index in `recently_sampled` HashSet
+3. If yes, retry (max 100 attempts)
+4. If max attempts reached, clear cooldown and use current sample
+5. Add sampled index to `recently_sampled`
+
+### Cooldown Management
+- Counter incremented after each `sample()` call
+- Every 50 batches (`sample_count % 50 == 49`), clear `recently_sampled`
+- Prevents unbounded HashSet growth during long training runs
+
+### Edge Cases Handled
+
+1. **Small buffers:** Fallback prevents infinite loops
+2. **Long training:** Automatic cooldown every 50 batches
+3. **Thread safety:** Mutex protects HashSet
+4. **Buffer clear:** Resets both counter and HashSet
+
+## Performance Characteristics
+
+- **Space Complexity:** O(batch_size) for recently_sampled HashSet
+- **Time Complexity:** O(1) expected per sample, O(100) worst case
+- **Memory Overhead:** Minimal - HashSet cleared every 50 batches
+- **Fallback Safety:** Prevents infinite loops in edge cases
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **No Duplicate Experiences:** Consecutive batches are guaranteed disjoint (up to 50 batches)
+2. **Better Gradient Diversity:** Each training update uses unique experiences
+3. **Graceful Degradation:** Handles small buffers without failing
+4. **Automatic Cleanup:** Prevents memory growth over long runs
+5. **Minimal Overhead:** O(1) HashSet lookups per sample
+
+## Integration Notes
+
+- **No API Changes:** Existing `sample()` signature unchanged
+- **Backward Compatible:** Feature automatically enabled
+- **Configuration:** Hardcoded to 50-batch cooldown (can be parameterized later)
+- **Thread Safe:** Uses `Arc<Mutex<HashSet<usize>>>` for concurrent access
+
+## Next Steps (Future Enhancements)
+
+1. Make cooldown period configurable via `PrioritizedReplayConfig`
+2. Add metrics to track fallback frequency
+3. Consider adaptive cooldown based on buffer utilization
+4. Expose diversity statistics in `PrioritizedReplayMetrics`
+
