* fix(deps): cap placo below 0.9.16 and harden kinematics import
placo 0.9.16 links against liburdfdom_sensor.so.4, which is unavailable
on Ubuntu 24.04 (noble ships urdfdom 3.x). Importing placo on that base
crashes with:
ImportError: liburdfdom_sensor.so.4.0: cannot open shared object file
This broke nightly Latest Deps tests (CPU and GPU) when the lockfile
upgrade picked placo 0.9.16, since lerobot.model.kinematics
unconditionally imports placo when _placo_available is true, and that
check (importlib.util.find_spec) cannot detect dlopen failures of
transitive shared libraries — so unrelated subsystems (RL actor,
gym_manipulator) became unimportable.
Two changes:
1. Pin placo to <0.9.16 in pyproject.toml + regenerate uv.lock
(0.9.16 → 0.9.15). Short-term unblock for nightly CI until system
urdfdom 4.x is broadly available.
2. Harden the import guard in src/lerobot/model/kinematics.py:
wrap 'import placo' in try/except ImportError so a missing
transitive .so no longer crashes module import. RobotKinematics
instantiation now raises an informative ImportError citing the
underlying dlopen failure via _raise_if_placo_unusable().

* fix(kinematics): hoist _placo_runtime_error to module scope for mypy
Mypy walks the TYPE_CHECKING branch in which the runtime else-block is
not executed, so _placo_runtime_error was only defined at runtime and
mypy reported 'Name "_placo_runtime_error" is not defined' on the
three references inside _raise_if_placo_unusable. Declare the symbol
unconditionally at module scope with a default of None; the runtime
import-failure branch still assigns to it.

- Fixed broken API examples in Lerobot Imitation Learning Documentation
- Teleoperation with cameras improved by adding a fixed frequency in the loop (without it the cameras feed gets very slow)
- Wrapped record example script in main() to avoid problems on Mac
- Previously teleoperation example was using SO-ARM and teleoperation with cameras was using Koch. I changed it to use SO-ARM in all of the examples.
- Added section on how to train with HF Jobs - CLI and Python examples
- Replaced lerobot-record with lerobot-rollout in policies examples
