Snider fa08ed1e2a test(metal): validate gradient checkpointing with real model (Phase 3)
Checkpoint() wraps forward pass to recompute activations during
backward, trading compute for memory. Verified with Gemma3-1B LoRA
training: produces correct gradients (loss 7.15→7.08, matches
non-checkpointed initial loss). Unit test confirms gradient
correctness on simple function (sum(x^2), grad=[2,4,6]).
