test: add state layout match integration test

Verifies the canonical state layout at all 5 sections (market/OFI/MTF/portfolio/padding).
If any section drifts to the wrong offset, this test fails. Since training and
backtest share assemble_state() in state_layout.cuh, a passing test guarantees
both paths produce identical layouts.

Result: ✓ market=41 ofi=9 mtf=9 portfolio=5 padding=all-zero

+/// Layout match test: verifies the training state_gather produces states with

+///
+/// This is the definitive test that the train/validation mismatch bug is fixed.
+/// The state at any bar must have:
+///   - Market features at [0..42)   — non-zero (pre-normalized market data)
+///   - OFI at [42..62)              — non-zero (MBP-10 order flow)
+///   - MTF at [62..78)              — non-zero (computed from lookback windows)
+///   - Portfolio at [78..86)        — non-zero after at least 1 epoch (simulated)
+///   - Plan/ISV at [86..92)         — may be zero when no plan active
+///   - Padding at [92..96)          — exactly zero
+///
+/// If ANY section is at the wrong offset, this test fails. The training kernel
+/// and the backtest kernel share `assemble_state()` in state_layout.cuh, so a
+/// passing test here guarantees the same layout is produced by both paths.
