docs(groot): document the N1.5 removal and the N1.7 parity test

- groot.mdx: breaking-change warning and migration path (pin lerobot==0.5.1 to
  keep N1.5, or move to N1.7); the dead `huggingface-cli download` is replaced
  with `hf download`.
- policy_groot_README.md: N1.5 removal note, updated paper / model-card links,
  and the two-comparison (model parity + preprocessor parity) description of
  the original-vs-LeRobot test, including the raw-observation artifacts and
  recorded seed.

LeRobot integrates GR00T N1.7 through the `groot` policy type.
> [!WARNING]
> **Breaking change:** GR00T N1.5 support was removed from LeRobot, and current releases support GR00T N1.7 only. N1.5 checkpoints, configs, and `--policy.model_version=n1.5` are rejected with a clear error. To keep using an N1.5 checkpoint, pin the last release that supports it: `pip install 'lerobot==0.5.1'`. To use the current release, migrate to GR00T N1.7 (`model_version='n1.7'`, base model [`nvidia/GR00T-N1.7-3B`](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/GR00T-N1.7-3B)).
## Model Overview
GR00T N1.7 uses a Cosmos-Reason2/Qwen3-VL backbone and provides checkpoints for SimplerEnv, DROID, and LIBERO.
