Pepijn cec8ee0be6 feat: language annotation pipeline (#3471)
Steerable annotation pipeline (lerobot-annotate) that populates the language_persistent and language_events columns introduced in PR 1 (#3467) directly into data/chunk-*/file-*.parquet.

This is PR 2 of the three-PR plan:

PR 1 (Add extensive language support #3467): schema + DSL + rendering, base of this PR
PR 2 (this PR): annotation pipeline writing into PR 1's columns
PR 3: model with language prediction and runtime
A VLM (Qwen-VL family, served on vLLM) watches each episode's video and emits grounded language annotations: subtasks, plans, memory, task rephrasings, interjections + speech, and per-camera VQA. The pipeline is built for production annotation at scale — single-camera grounding, embedded-frame inputs, a describe-then-segment grounding flow, and a deterministic full-episode coverage guarantee — informed by Scale's dense-captioning findings (representation > sampling, rules > reasoning, model capacity is the biggest lever, two-pass systems compound errors)
