jgrusewski 05eb574d0c fix(dqn): register NoisyLinear mu vars in VarMap + multi-thread runtime
Three fixes for GPU-accelerated Branching DQN training:

1. **GPU experience collector**: NoisyLinear creates standalone Vars via
   Var::from_tensor(), bypassing VarMap registration. The GPU collector
   looks up weights by name ("value_fc.weight") from VarMap and falls
   back to CPU (~5x slower) when missing. Fix: register mu vars in
   VarMap at construction, keep sigma vars standalone.

2. **Optimizer device mismatch**: Using only vars().all_vars() left
   NoisyLinear head params frozen. backward() produces gradients the
   optimizer doesn't know about → device mismatch in clip_grad_norm.
   Fix: all_trainable_vars() = VarMap (shared+mu) + sigma.

3. **Single-threaded CPU bottleneck**: Runtime::new() creates a
   current-thread scheduler → 1 OS thread → all async work serialized.
   Fix: multi-thread runtime (4 workers) created once in DQNTrainer::new(),
   shared across preload/training/backtest phases. Eliminates 3 fallback
   Runtime::new() callsites.

Also: polyak_update_var_pairs with debug_assert_eq, two-phase target
network sync (VarMap Polyak + sigma var_pairs Polyak), copy_weights_from
handles NoisyLinear heads.

ML Models

Four production model architectures on Candle v0.9.1 with CUDA:

  • DQN Rainbow -- Deep Q-Network with prioritized replay, dueling heads, noisy nets
  • PPO -- Proximal Policy Optimization with GAE and LSTM policies
  • TFT -- Temporal Fusion Transformer for multi-horizon forecasting
  • Mamba2 -- State space model for sequence prediction

Each model has a standalone trainer and a UnifiedTrainable adapter for the hyperopt pipeline.

Infrastructure

  • Git: Gitea at git.fxhnt.ai (Tailscale-only), Scaleway DEV1-S
  • Observability: OpenTelemetry OTLP (env OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT)
  • Database: PostgreSQL with SQLx offline mode for CI
