Add auto-resume checkpointing, S1/S2 configs, and experiment results

- Auto-resume: find latest checkpoint in save_dir on startup
- SIGUSR1 handler: save checkpoint before SLURM timeout
- S1 config (constant tau=5, identity init verification)
- S2 config (constant tau=2, gradient flow check)
- Experiment results tracker with S0/S1 data
- Speed estimates and experiment plan
