Closes the "true E8 per-segment PER sampling" deferral from Phase 7.
Phase 7 wired E8's SCALAR concentration to per_update_pa's alpha
boost; Phase 7.5 wires the FULL Vec<f32> of per-segment weights to
per_insert_pa's priority boost.
What lands:
1. 8 new ISV slots [528..536): CURRICULUM_WEIGHT_{0..8}_INDEX.
2. ISV_TOTAL_DIM 528 → 536 (bus extension); fingerprint adds 8 SLOT
entries; CURRICULUM_N_SEGMENTS=8 const + curriculum_weight_index
accessor.
3. per_insert_pa kernel reads isv[528 + seg_id] where seg_id = i % 8
(round-robin segment tag); effective priority × N_SEGMENTS ×
weight[seg_id]. Uniform weights → no-op (× 1.0); cold-start
sentinel → no-op; 0.1× floor against pathological zero-weight
segments preventing sticky exclusion.
4. Producer in training_loop writes 8 ISV slots from
result.curriculum_weights[0..8].
Segment tagging rationale:
- Naïve approach (tag tuples by val-curriculum-segment id) is
infeasible — val and training have separate coordinate systems
(same problem documented in Phase 5+6 audit re E6 winner indices).
- Round-robin via `i % 8` distributes experience-collector's typical
512+ tuple batch evenly across 8 segments. Over time buffer has
equal representation per segment; E8 weights redirect sampling
pressure toward "hard" segments at insert time.
- HEURISTIC mapping (doesn't preserve val-segment semantics) but
consumes the curriculum_weights vector for real PER priority
redistribution — Phase 7.5's stated goal.
