Seed test_pink_ik env and bump G1 rotation tolerance to 0.100 rad
The unset seed in create_test_env meant the same forward_waist_bending case produced different IK convergence residuals (0.055 rad locally, 0.086 rad in CI) -- making it impossible to choose a safe tolerance threshold by local observation alone. Two fixes together: 1) Set env_cfg.seed=42 so the convergence residual is reproducible across runs and machines. The warning "Seed not set for the environment. The environment creation may not be deterministic." from manager_based_env is now gone. 2) Bump G1 rotation tolerance from 0.080 rad (4.6 deg) to 0.100 rad (5.7 deg) in pink_ik_g1_test_configs.json. Under seed=42 the hardest case (forward_waist_bending_movement on FixedBaseUpperBodyIK-G1) deterministically reaches 0.086491 rad steady-state residual -- the QP equilibrium where wrist FrameTasks (cost 8/4) balance against NullSpacePostureTask regulating the waist joints (cost 0.05). 0.100 rad gives ~14 pct margin and stays well below the threshold at which pick-and-place behavior degrades (typical grasp tolerance is 5-10 deg). GR1T2 tolerance is unchanged at 0.020 rad; GR1T2 converges to ~1e-4 rad with the existing settings.
