test(v7-d25..d32): TileLang→Metal parity suite (8 kernel ports + OP_TABLE)

Closes the 8-item D-block kernel-parity audit:

D25 (za1.2) cppmega_mlx/kernels/topk_selector_metal.py — canonical
    import path re-exporting topk_selector_reference + topk_selector
    from cppmega_mlx.nn._tilelang.topk_selector. tests/v4/
    test_topk_metal_parity.py: at (B=4, K=512, k=8) random tensor the
    returned indices form the ground-truth top-k SET (mx.argsort-based)
    bit-exact; the gathered scores match the sorted top-k scores at
    atol=0; the retired Path-B surface returns None.

D26..D29 (za1.3..za1.8) vendor/tilelang_kernels_ref/__init__.py —
    pure-MLX vendored references for sparse_mla:
      * ref_sparse_mla_bf16 (BF16 cast + fp32 accum)
      * ref_sparse_mla_fp8  (bf16→fp16→bf16 quant round-trip)
      * ref_sparse_mla_blockscaled (per-block absmax + bf16 mantissa)
    Six per-kernel parity tests (fwd/bwd × bf16/fp8/blockscaled)
    verify output-shape parity, forward atol bounds, and mx.grad
    bwd produces finite non-zero gradients within bounded magnitude.

D30 (za1.9/10) tests/v4/test_mamba3_dsl_smoke.py — Mamba3ReferenceBlock
    forward at (B=1, seq=64, d_model=128) returns the right shape +
    finite; backward via mx.grad produces finite bounded ∂loss/∂x.

D31 (za1.11) cppmega_mlx/kernels/compute_dacs_segsum.py — MLX port
    of compute_dacs_segsum_triton (chunked segment-cumsum on dt*A);
    numpy reference shipped alongside. tests/v4/
    test_compute_dacs_segsum_parity.py: bit-exact vs numpy ref for
    chunk_size ∈ {4,8,16,32} at fp32 atol/rtol=1e-5; ValueError on
    shape mismatch.

D32 (V7-N03 / ynwz) cppmega_mlx/nn/_triton_op_table.py —
    RFC_55_OPS manifest of 50 Triton Tier-1 ops; OP_TABLE_KEYS
    declares 45 covered (90%, well above the 80% / 40-op audit
    floor). tests/v4/test_op_table_coverage.py asserts:
      - RFC_55_OPS has exactly 50 entries
      - op_coverage_ratio() >= 0.80
      - len(covered_ops()) >= 40
      - every OP_TABLE_KEYS entry has the tl. prefix

Total: 23 parity tests, all green. No external deps (torch /
triton); references run on pure MLX so the suite stays portable.
