Pepijn 1050c2fb6c feat(streaming): episode-pool iteration with decode-on-exit, video prefetch, and exact resume
Replace the shard/Backtrackable/decoded-shuffle-buffer internals with an
episode pool: each (rank x worker) consumer keeps episode_pool_size whole
episodes' tabular rows in RAM and emits uniformly random frames across
them. delta_timestamps windows become exact in-RAM slices with correct
boundary padding (the Backtrackable machinery and its lookback/lookahead
ceilings are gone), and video is decoded only when a sample is emitted,
so pool memory stays tabular-sized instead of buffer_size decoded
samples.

- Prefetch-on-admit: when streaming from a remote source, each pooled
  episode's video files download to a local cache in the background
  (refcounted, since v3 packs several episodes per file; deleted on
  eviction), so decode-on-exit reads local bytes instead of paying
  network seek latency.
- Per-consumer RNG derived from (seed, epoch, rank, worker): consumers
  decorrelated, runs reproducible, epochs reshuffle automatically.
- Deterministic fast-forward resume: load_state_dict takes the trainer's
  {batches_consumed, batch_size}; each worker re-derives its own skip
  from the DataLoader's round-robin batch assignment and replays
  tabular-only (no decode). Exact within an epoch, works with
  num_workers > 0, and the same state file serves every rank. Replaces
  the per-shard HF state_dict approach, which lived in worker processes
  and could not be captured from the trainer.
- Shard-cap default removed (max_num_shards=None uses every parquet
  shard); runtime warnings for non-divisible world sizes (datasets
  degrades to read-everything splitting) and workers left without
  shards.
- episode_pool_size replaces buffer_size (deprecated, ignored with a
  warning); decoder cache sized to the pool working set, capped at 128.

Legacy order-replication tests asserted the old buffer algorithm
step-by-step and are rewritten as behavior contracts (exactly-once
coverage, per-seed determinism, epoch reshuffle). Value-level parity
tests against the map-style dataset pass unchanged.

# Submit the FULL streaming dataloading-benchmark matrix as isolated single-GPU SLURM jobs.
#
# sources : hub (Hub streaming) | bucket (cold HF bucket) | warmed_bucket (prewarmed HF bucket)
# modes : single (1 frame, all cameras) | sarm (8-step / 8s delta window)
# decode : cpu (torchcodec on CPU, scales with workers) | cuda (NVDEC, offloads decode to the GPU)
#
# => 3 x 2 x 2 = 12 jobs. Each runs in its OWN job (1 node, 1 GPU) so an OOM is isolated and reported
# per-job by SLURM (check `sacct -j <id> --format=JobID,State,MaxRSS,ReqMem`). Submit from a login node
# inside the repo: bash slurm/run_streaming_matrix.sh
#
# SERIAL (default 1): chain the jobs with --dependency=afterany so SLURM runs exactly ONE at a time. This
# is important for a bandwidth benchmark — concurrent jobs would share the network to the Hub/bucket and
# corrupt every throughput number. `afterany` means a failed/OOM'd job does not stall the chain. Set
# SERIAL=0 to let the scheduler run them in parallel (only for OOM-isolation testing, not for throughput).
#
# Knobs (env overrides):
# REPO_ID, BUCKET, WARM_BUCKET, OUT_DIR, NUM_BATCHES, TIME, MEM, GPUS, SERIAL
# CPU_WORKERS / CPU_BUFFER (cpu-decode jobs) GPU_WORKERS / GPU_BUFFER (cuda-decode jobs, kept low to
# bound VRAM + NVDEC sessions). RUN ("python" by default; set RUN="uv run python" if using uv).
# SOURCES / MODES / DECODES to run a subset (e.g. SOURCES="hub bucket" DECODES="cpu").
# ACCOUNT / PARTITION / QOS passed through to sbatch if set.
