Complete bf16 elimination across all crates (ml, ml-core, ml-dqn, ml-ppo,
ml-supervised). Zero half::bf16, __nv_bfloat16, or CudaSlice<half::bf16>
references remain (verified by grep).
CUDA: All 60+ .cu kernels and .cuh headers converted to native float.
- Half-precision intrinsics (__hmul, __hadd, __hdiv) → float operators
- atomicAddBF16 → native atomicAdd(float)
- bf16 wrapper functions → f32 identity passthroughs
Rust: All CudaSlice<half::bf16> → CudaSlice<f32> across 90+ files.
- htod_f32_to_bf16/dtoh_bf16_to_f32 → htod_f32/dtoh_f32 (direct, no conversion)
- Deleted bf16 mirror infrastructure (DuelingWeightSetBf16, alloc_bf16_mirror, etc.)
- Renamed params_bf16→params_flat, d_value_logits_bf16→d_value_logits, etc.
- Fixed .to_f32() sed damage on Decimal::to_f32() and rng.f32()
FxCache: Single f32 disk format (was bf16/f64 dual-version).
- Deleted --bf16 CLI flag from precompute_features
- PVC cache files need regeneration via precompute_features
TF32 tensor cores activated via cublasLtMatmul CUBLAS_COMPUTE_32F — no
explicit TF32 types needed. Storage is pure f32 everywhere.

8 test files had stale types from the bf16→f32 conversion:
- gpu_smoketest: missing adam_epsilon in DQNConfig
- gpu_backtest_validation: closure params bf16→f32
- gpu_kernel_parity_test: market data, weight readback bf16→f32
- gpu_per_integration_test: weights readback bf16→f32
- target_update_tests: varstore register bf16→f32
- smoke_test_real_data: market buffers bf16→f32
- activation_tests, dropout_scheduler_tests: forward() signature change
These tests only compile with --features cuda (CI path), which is why
they passed locally with cargo test --lib.

Final cleanup:
- 61 test files + 5 example files: candle imports replaced
- 8 testing/integration files: migrated to cudarc/ml-core types
- 3 services/trading_service test files: migrated
- Root Cargo.toml: candle-core, candle-nn removed from [workspace.dependencies]
- crates/ml/Cargo.toml: candle-nn dependency removed
- testing/e2e/Cargo.toml: candle-core dependency removed
Zero active candle_core/candle_nn/candle_optimisers code references remain.
Zero candle dependency declarations in any Cargo.toml.
Remaining "candle" strings are exclusively in doc comments.

- Remove ALL #[cfg(feature = "cuda")] guards (~400+ occurrences)
- Remove ALL #[cfg_attr(not(feature = "cuda"), ignore)] test annotations (~250)
- Make cuda default feature in 9 ML crates (ml, ml-core, ml-dqn, ml-ppo, etc.)
- Convert nvrtc JIT compilation to precompiled nvcc (searchsorted, prefix_sum)
- Move compile_ptx_for_device() to ml-core for shared access
- Delete dead CPU code: multi_step.rs, self_supervised_pretraining.rs,
training_guard_gpu_tests.rs, CPU PER buffer paths, CPU Q-diagnostics
- Replace unwrap_or(Device::Cpu) with hard errors everywhere
- Remove dead is_cuda() else branches in DQN/PPO/hyperopt trainers
- Change config defaults from "cpu" to "cuda" (rainbow, tlob, pipeline)
- Port IQL value network to GPU kernel (5 CUDA entry points)
- Port HER goal relabeling to GPU kernel (warp-per-sample)
- Wire DSR GPU-to-CPU sync in training loop
- cfg!(feature = "cuda") → true in inference_validator
Zero warnings, zero errors across entire workspace.

Adds crates/ml/tests/gpu_backtest_validation.rs with 6 deterministic
tests that validate GpuBacktestEvaluator produces reasonable metrics:
always-long on uptrend (positive PnL), always-long on downtrend
(negative PnL), always-flat (~zero PnL), multi-window ordering,
extended metrics finiteness/self-consistency, and trade count.
All tests are #[ignore] gated and skip gracefully on CPU-only machines
(CI passes with 6 ignored; intended for GPU development machines).
