"""option 2 / H2: train a full EP equilibrium transformer block on Shakespeare char-LM.

Readout logits = z* Whead ; loss = next-token cross-entropy.

Train modes:
  ep    : free + +/-beta nudged equilibria. Block+embed params via vector-field gradient
          <a, dF/dtheta(z*)> with the AEP correction (clipped) on the attention part; readout
          head via its own local gradient dCE/dWhead. NO backprop through the relaxation.
  bptt  : backprop through the unrolled relaxation (exact-gradient reference, same architecture).
Stabilisation from G: damping c, clipped AEP correction, weight-norm caps, best-val checkpoint.
