Closes EleutherAI#2189 Adds two new calibration quality metrics: - ece: Expected Calibration Error with equal-width binning (Guo et al. 2017) - rms_ce: Root-Mean-Square Calibration Error Both are registered as output_type=['multiple_choice'] metrics compatible with the brier_score pattern. Each accepts (gold_label, predicted_probability) pairs and returns a scalar in [0, 1]. Lower is better.

Closes #2189
Summary
Adds two new calibration quality metrics as requested in #2189:
ece— Expected Calibration Error with equal-width binningrms_ce— Root-Mean-Square Calibration ErrorBoth follow the existing

ECE bins predictions into
n_binsequal-width buckets and computes the weighted average of |accuracy − confidence| per bin (Guo et al., "On Calibration of Modern Neural Networks", ICML 2017).RMS-CE uses an L2 norm instead of L1, giving more weight to large miscalibration gaps.
