jgrusewski 5935907cd7 feat(ppo): gradient accumulation, clip-higher, and WorkingPPO→PPO rename
- Add accumulation_steps config to PPOConfig with gradient accumulation
  in update_mlp() using existing accumulate_grads/scale_grads utilities
- Add clip_epsilon_high: Option<f32> for asymmetric PPO clipping to
  prevent entropy collapse during long training
- Rename WorkingPPO → PPO for consistency with DQN naming convention
- Add pub type WorkingPPO = PPO for backward compatibility
- Fix PPOConfig struct literals in trading_service and hyperopt adapter

//! **PPO Step Counter Fix Verification Test**
//!
//! This test validates the fix for the PPO checkpoint step counter reset bug.
//!
//! **Bug**: When PPO loads a checkpoint, the step counter resets to 0 instead of
//! preserving the training progress. This breaks early stopping logic and prevents
//! correct resume behavior.
//!
//! **Fix**: Modified `PPO::save_checkpoint()` and `PPO::load_checkpoint()`
//! to persist and restore the `training_steps` field via metadata JSON file.
//!
//! **Test Coverage**:
//! 1. Save checkpoint with training_steps=1000
//! 2. Load checkpoint and verify training_steps=1000
//! 3. Train for 100 more steps and verify training_steps=1100
//! 4. Test legacy checkpoints without metadata (should start at 0)
