test(vml): HIP multi-object detection via archetype unbinding

Detect multi-object images by subtracting primary class archetype
and checking residual against other class archetypes.

Results (500 images, 10 classes, grid-line features):
  148/500 (30%) images have multi-object signal (residual sim > 0.3)
  Top class-pair intersections (BRANCH traversals):
    class 0×5, 4×8, 0×4, 4×5: 8 images each share features

The pipeline:
  1. image_features → subtract nearest class archetype → residual
  2. cosine(residual, other_archetypes) → if > 0.3 → multi-object
  3. The (primary, secondary) pairs = BRANCH traversals in HHTL
  4. CHAODA: images far from ALL archetypes = true outliers

This is the bird/fence detector: unbind(image, bird) → check if fence
remains in the residual. The intersection features (BRANCH) are WHERE
the two objects interact in feature space.
