cleanup: remove all bf16 naming remnants — pure f32 pipeline

Renamed: q_bf16→q_host, bf16_uniform→uniform, host_bf16→host,
bf16_raw→raw, bf16_pred→pred, raw_bf16_ptr→raw_f32_ptr (removed dup).
Removed stale comments: "no bf16 NaN risk", "no bf16 overflow",
"no bf16 precision loss", "BF16 bias+relu kernels".
Removed redundant .to_vec() clones from test helpers.

Also includes precommit fixes:
- CRITICAL: backward_full uses padded_byte_offset for ALL offsets
- HIGH: Graph + xLSTM params documented as fixed-init by design
- LOW: Diffusion denoiser K=3→K=2 (eliminates ping-pong copy)

/**
* Backward pass utility kernels for the cuBLAS backward pass.
*
* All kernels operate on f32 — no bf16 in the backward chain.
* All kernels operate on f32.
*
* 1. relu_mask_kernel — zero gradient where activation <= 0 (ReLU backward)
* 2. bias_grad_reduce_f32_kernel — sum f32 dY across batch into dB
