fix: xfail AMPLIFY FSDP2 tests and remove stale ESM2 HF FSDP2 xfail (#1564)

## Nightly CI Fix (2026-04-26)

Fixes nightly CI failure in `unit-tests-recipes.yml`
([run](https://github.com/NVIDIA/bionemo-framework/actions/runs/24953246928)):

### 1. `esm2_accelerate_te` —
`test_accelerate_amplify.py::test_te_with_fsdp2_config` FAILED
**Root cause:** The AMPLIFY model on HuggingFace Hub
(`nvidia/AMPLIFY_120M`) does not implement `get_input_embeddings()`,
which the accelerate FSDP2 prepare path now requires
(`transformers>=5.6`).

The previous fix (#1563) added `get_input_embeddings` to a local copy of
`amplify_te.py`, but the test loads the model from HuggingFace Hub via
`AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_config(config, trust_remote_code=True)`, so
the local fix had no effect.

**Fix:** Mark `test_te_with_fsdp2_config` and
`test_te_with_fsdp2_config_two_gpus` as `xfail(strict=True)` until the
upstream AMPLIFY model is updated.

### 2. `esm2_accelerate_te` — `test_hf_with_fsdp2_config` XPASSED
**Root cause:** The `xfail` for BIONEMO-3331 is stale — ESM2 HF FSDP2
tests now pass with the current container.

**Fix:** Remove the `xfail` decorators from `test_hf_with_fsdp2_config`
and `test_hf_with_fsdp2_config_two_gpus`.
