Johnny Fernandes 10c01a938e Drop versioning vocabulary, polish docstrings, fix world-aware policy resolution
User-facing pass after the project was decided to be a single
submission with no inner iterations.

* Remove every "v1"/"v2"/"versioning" reference from the docs:
  - README mecanum section trims the "v1 predates the rewrite" prose
    in favour of a self-contained retrain recipe.
  - The 3.2 GB `training/runs/v1_clean/` backup directory is deleted.
* Refresh control-layer docstrings:
  - `sheep_tracker.py` header now describes the three actual pipeline
    stages (consensus, prediction, pen latching) instead of layering
    the consensus stage on top of a stale "predictive mode" preamble.
  - `controllers/shepherd_dog/shepherd_dog.py` mode list is
    up-to-date — adds `universal`, removes outdated single-policy
    default paths, mentions `HERDING_USE_GT=1` as the perception
    ablation.
* Refresh training command examples:
  - `training/bc/collect.py` and `training/bc/pretrain.py` usage
    snippets show the world-suffixed paths the Makefile actually
    uses; the `--out` arg is now required so old "demos.npz"
    invocations error loudly instead of silently overwriting.
  - `training/README.md` rewritten — drops the legacy `runs/bc`
    diagram, documents the per-(drive, world) pipeline, and adds
    the mecanum retraining caveat.
* Fix policy-directory resolution end-to-end:
  - `tools/run_webots.sh` now tries
    `training/runs/{bc,rl}_<drive>_<world>` first, then the drive-
    only path, then the bare-mode legacy path — matching the actual
    on-disk layout. Previously it looked for `bc_<drive>` (no
    world) and silently fell back to `bc`, masking the world
    selection.
  - `controllers/shepherd_dog/shepherd_dog.py:_resolve_policy_dir`
    has the same fix plus a latent NameError unmasked: it referenced
    `DRIVE_MODE` before that variable was set at module load. The
    block is restructured so MODE/DRIVE_MODE/WORLD are resolved
    first, then the function uses them as explicit arguments.

126 pytest cases still pass.

"""Collect (obs, action) demonstrations from an analytic teacher.
Runs the chosen teacher across a grid of ``(n_sheep, seed)`` combos at
full difficulty, logs every Nth ``(obs, action)`` pair, and saves
successful trajectories to ``.npz`` for behaviour cloning. The teacher
is wrapped in :class:`ActiveScanTeacher` by default so it operates on
the same partial-obs view the student will have at deployment.
Usage::
python -m training.bc.collect --teacher universal --drive-mode differential \\
--world field --out training/bc/demos_differential_field.npz --frame-stack 4
