feat: add comprehensive tests for sel_type parameter in dipole fitting

- Add TestDipoleSelType class for cross-backend consistency testing with sel_type=[0,1]
- Add TestDipoleSelTypeBehavior class with specific sel_type functionality tests:
  * test_tf_sel_type_all_types: verify TF dipole fitting with all types selected
  * test_tf_sel_type_partial: verify TF dipole fitting with partial type selection
  * test_dp_exclude_types_behavior: verify DP dipole fitting exclude_types behavior
  * test_serialization_with_excluded_types: verify sel_type is properly stored
  * test_network_collection_none_handling: verify NetworkCollection handles None networks
- Fix TF fitting.py to handle None networks in deserialization (skip instead of assert)
- All tests pass and verify the sel_type bug fix works correctly
