Pepijn f763f85213 feat: language annotation pipeline (PR 2/3)
Adds the steerable annotation pipeline (`lerobot-annotate`) that populates
the `language_persistent` and `language_events` columns introduced in
PR 1 directly into `data/chunk-*/file-*.parquet`. No flavor namespace,
no sidecar tree.

Modules produced:
- Module 1 (plan_subtasks_memory): Pi0.7-style subtasks, plan (init +
  refresh on interjection), MEM-style memory at subtask boundaries.
- Module 2 (interjections_and_speech): t=0 speech-only acknowledgement,
  mid-episode paired interjection + speech tool-call atom.
- Module 3 (general_vqa): bbox/keypoint/count/attribute/spatial pairs at
  configurable cadence with one-retry JSON validation.

Writer enforces: per-episode persistent identity, exact-frame event
timestamps, column routing per `column_for_style`, dataset-level `tools`
column with the `say` schema, drops legacy `subtask_index`. Validator
runs against staged JSONL artifacts before the writer rewrites parquet.

Adds `lerobot-annotate` console script, `annotations` extra (datatrove +
optional vllm), `make annotation-e2e` opt-in smoke target, and
`docs/source/annotation_pipeline.mdx`.

Branched from PR 1 (`feat/language-columns`).

"""Datatrove-shaped reader.
The reader walks ``data/chunk-*/file-*.parquet`` and yields one record per
episode containing:
- ``episode_index``: int
- ``frame_timestamps``: tuple[float, ...]
- ``frame_indices``: tuple[int, ...]
- ``episode_task``: str (canonical task from ``meta/tasks.parquet``)
- ``data_path``: pathlib.Path of the source parquet shard
- ``frames_df``: pandas.DataFrame slice for the episode (only loaded on demand)
This shape lets each module operate per-episode without loading all parquet
rows into memory at once. It deliberately does not depend on datatrove —
datatrove integration wraps this generator inside a ``PipelineStep`` in
:mod:`.executor`.
