feat: BitNet full transformer forward pass implementation
- Implemented weight quantization F32 -> ternary {-1, 0, +1} - Implemented ternary matrix-vector multiplication with scales - Implemented RMS normalization - Implemented Rotary Position Embeddings (RoPE) - Implemented multi-head attention with ternary Q/K/V/O - Implemented SwiGLU FFN (gate, up, down projections) - Implemented softmax and SiLU activation - All 6 unit tests passing Co-authored-by: Ona <no-reply@ona.com>

### Recommendation
201-
Implement full BitNet inference pipeline to achieve coherent text generation. The model is correctly loaded; we just need the complete forward pass with proper ternary quantization.
