Adds the Phase 5 consumer kernel-side gate. New kernel arg `const float* __restrict__ aux_conf_at_state` appended to `c51_loss_batched`'s signature. Gate computation runs once per sample at the kernel-entry reward-setup site (after the #27 ensemble- disagreement adjustment), then the gated `reward` propagates through every branch's `block_bellman_project_f` call without per-branch changes. Formula: gate = sigmoid((aux_conf - threshold) / temp) reward = gate * reward where: threshold = ISV[AUX_CONF_THRESHOLD_INDEX=518] temp = max(ISV[AUX_GATE_TEMP_INDEX=519], 1e-3) Mathematical interpretation: at low aux confidence (gate→0), `r_used → 0`, so the Bellman target becomes `gamma * Q(s', a')`. The Q value at the current state collapses toward `gamma * Q(s', a')` — model gets no reward feedback on uncertain transitions. Effectively "don't update Q on uncertain transitions" — the "uncertain-state neutralizer" semantic from the Phase 3 Task 3.4 audit doc spec §4.4. NULL-tolerant: `aux_conf_at_state == NULL` OR `isv_signals == NULL` ⇒ gate skipped (identity, no-op = pre-Phase-5 behaviour). Test scaffolds without a wired aux head still work. Out of scope: `iqn_dual_head_kernel.cu` — IQN is the auxiliary loss, C51 is production. Gating IQN is more complexity for marginal gain.
