fix(language): keep base install green — drop processor re-export, gate dataset-extra tests

`lerobot.processor` re-exported `RenderMessagesStep` at the package
level, so importing anything from `lerobot.processor` pulled in
`lerobot.datasets.language` → `lerobot.datasets/__init__.py` →
`require_package("datasets")`, which fails in the Tier 1 base install
that intentionally omits the `[dataset]` extra. The chain bricked
collection for unrelated suites (`tests/policies/pi0_pi05/...`,
`tests/envs/...`, etc.).

* Stop re-exporting `RenderMessagesStep` from `lerobot.processor`. The
  only consumer (the test) already imports from the submodule.
  Document the deliberate omission in the module docstring.
* Add `pytest.importorskip("datasets", ...)` (and `pandas` where
  needed) at the top of the four PR-added tests that exercise the
  language stack:
  - tests/datasets/test_language.py
  - tests/datasets/test_language_render.py
  - tests/processor/test_render_messages_processor.py
  - tests/utils/test_collate.py
