docs(meridian): iteration 3 plan + GPU pre-train wiring stub (#68)

Closes the prototype's "iter 3 = plan + wiring documented" item (ADR-027 §2.0):

  - scripts/pretrain-mae-gcloud.sh — GCloud GPU driver for the MAE pre-train: a
    thin, reviewable mirror of scripts/gcloud-train.sh that provisions a VM in
    cognitum-20260110, builds wifi-densepose-train --features tch-backend,cuda,
    runs the `pretrain-mae` binary, downloads the .ot variable store, tears the
    VM down. Currently drives SyntheticCsiDataset (the smoke path); the one TODO
    is the --data-dir/--datasets plumbing for the real heterogeneous corpus.
    NOT run as part of this prototype. Also supports --dry-run (local synthetic
    pre-train, needs LibTorch).
  - ADR-027 §2.0 — added the "Iteration 3 plan" subsection: heterogeneous-CSI
    ingest (own recordings + MM-Fi + Wi-Pose + multi-band virtual sub-carriers,
    normalised to 56 sub-carriers), the GPU run, lifting the v0 limits
    (per-sample masking, transformer blocks, circular phase loss), the fine-tune
    handoff (load the CsiMae encoder into WiFiDensePoseModel via a
    `--init-encoder <mae.ot>` flag, then train the §2.x heads as regularisers),
    cross-domain eval (§4.6 protocol), and shipping the encoder as an RVF segment.
  - wifi-densepose-train/README.md — new "MERIDIAN-MAE" section pointing at the
    csi_mae module, the pretrain-mae binary, the gcloud script, and ADR-027 §2.0.
  - csi_mae.rs module doc — updated the iteration-status block.

cargo test -p wifi-densepose-train --no-default-features → 121 lib tests pass.

This completes the MERIDIAN CSI-MAE *prototype* (iter 1 masking pipeline +
iter 2 tch model/pretrain loop/bin + iter 3 plan/wiring). Real cross-domain
results need the heterogeneous ingest + a GPU pre-train run (iter 3 execution),
out of scope for the prototype.

#### Iteration 3 plan — heterogeneous-CSI ingest, GPU pre-train, fine-tune handoff
The remaining prototype work (the parts that can't run on the dev box):
1. **Heterogeneous-CSI ingest.** A `csi_mae`-adjacent loader that pools every reachable CSI source into a uniform `[T, tx, rx, sub]` window stream, normalising sub-carrier count to 56 (via `wifi-densepose-train::subcarrier::interpolate_subcarriers`) and amplitude scale per-frame:
- own captures: `data/recordings/*.csi.jsonl`, overnight recordings;
- `MmFiDataset` (ADR-015, NeurIPS-2023 MM-Fi, 114 sub-carriers → interpolate);
- Wi-Pose (ADR-015);
- multi-band virtual sub-carriers from `ruvsense/multiband.rs` (3 channels × 56 → 168) — treated as extra tokens, not extra streams;
- public CSI corpora as available.
Implemented as a `CsiDataset` impl (e.g. `PooledCsiDataset`) that round-robins / weights sources; `pretrain-mae` gains a `--datasets <spec>` flag selecting it instead of `SyntheticCsiDataset`. *Thesis (arXiv:2511.18792): breadth of this pool — devices, bands, rooms — is what buys cross-domain generalisation; the model stays small.*
2. **GPU pre-train run.** `scripts/pretrain-mae-gcloud.sh` (added this iteration — a thin mirror of `scripts/gcloud-train.sh`): provisions a GCloud VM in `cognitum-20260110`, builds `wifi-densepose-train` with `--features tch-backend,cuda`, runs `pretrain-mae`, downloads the `.ot` variable store, tears the VM down. Currently drives `SyntheticCsiDataset` (the smoke path); the `--data-dir`/`--datasets` plumbing for the real corpus is the one TODO in that script. *Not run as part of this prototype.*
3. **Lift the v0 model limits.** Per-sample masking (gather/scatter so each window in a batch can have its own mask), self-attention transformer blocks in the encoder/decoder (replacing the residual MLPs and the flatten-to-latent bottleneck — this also removes the fixed-`n_tokens` constraint), a circular phase-reconstruction loss.
4. **Fine-tune handoff.** Load the pre-trained `CsiMae` encoder weights into the `model::WiFiDensePoseModel` front-end (the `ModalityTranslator` slot), freeze for a warm-up, then unfreeze; train the 17-keypoint / DensePose-UV heads, the AETHER contrastive embedding (ADR-024), and the §2.1§2.6 domain-adversarial / geometry-conditioned layers *as regularisers on top of the pre-trained representation*. A `train` sub-command flag (`--init-encoder <mae.ot>`) wires this.
5. **Cross-domain eval.** Run §4.6's protocol (leave-one-room-out / leave-one-device-out) on the fine-tuned model vs. the from-scratch baseline; the win condition is the +2.2 %…+15.7 % cross-domain band that 2511.18792 reports for MAE pre-training.
6. **Ship the encoder** as an RVF segment (§4.7) so deployments load a pre-trained backbone and only carry the small task head + per-room adapter (stage 3 / the SFDA ADR).
The remainder of this ADR (§2.1 onward) describes the **fine-tune-stage architecture** — read it as "the head and regularisers that sit on top of the §2.0 pre-trained encoder", not as a from-scratch design.

#
# STATUS: prototype wiring stub (ADR-027 §2.0, iteration 3). The `pretrain-mae`

# data/recordings/ + multi-band virtual sub-carriers) needs the ingest pipeline
# tracked in ADR-027 §2.0 "Iteration 3 plan"; the TODO markers below show where
# it plugs in. This script is intentionally a thin, reviewable shell of the real
# gcloud-train.sh (which it mirrors) — it has NOT been run.

# --epochs N Pre-train epochs (default: 20)
# --samples N Synthetic samples (until the real ingest lands) (default: 4096)
# --batch N Mini-batch size (default: 64)
# --mask-ratio R Token mask ratio (default: 0.75)
# --lr R Adam learning rate (default: 1e-3)
# --out FILE Local path for the downloaded .ot (default: data/models/mae-pretrained.ot)
# --data-dir DIR (future) heterogeneous CSI corpus to upload — see TODO below
# --dry-run Build + run a tiny pre-train locally with synthetic data; no VM
# --keep-vm Do not delete the VM after the run

#
# Prerequisites (same as gcloud-train.sh):

# - Project set: gcloud config set project cognitum-20260110
# - GPU quota in the chosen zone
#
# Cost (same envelope as gcloud-train.sh):

## MERIDIAN-MAE — masked-autoencoder pre-training (ADR-027 §2.0)
The `csi_mae` module implements a CIG-MAE-style **dual-stream (amplitude + phase)** masked
autoencoder for cross-domain CSI pre-training. The thesis (2026-Q2 SOTA survey, arXiv:2511.18792):
cross-room generalisation is a *data-breadth* problem — pre-train one CSI encoder on heterogeneous
capture, attach a small task head — not a bigger-pose-net problem.
* Pure-Rust (always built): `MaeConfig`, `MaskStrategy` (`Random` / `InfoGuided` — the latter
variance-weights token selection so high-information tokens are masked), `TokenLayout`,
`mask_csi_window`, `reassemble_tokens`. Dependency-free deterministic masking.
* `csi_mae::model` (feature `tch-backend`): `CsiMae` (encoder over visible tokens → latent →
decoder reconstructs masked amplitude+phase), `reconstruction_loss`, `MaeBatch`, `pretrain_step`.
* Driver: `cargo run -p wifi-densepose-train --features tch-backend --bin pretrain-mae -- --epochs 5`
(synthetic data). GPU run: `bash scripts/pretrain-mae-gcloud.sh` (prototype wiring stub).
See `docs/adr/ADR-027-cross-environment-domain-generalization.md` §2.0 for the full plan
(heterogeneous-CSI ingest, GPU pre-train, fine-tune handoff, cross-domain eval).
