Rewrite NVFP4 fused router kernel: MoE-style epilogue replaces broken SMEM merge

CRITICAL REWRITE of nvfp4_fused_router_kernel.py:
- REMOVED: Raw pointer SMEM merge (storage.merge_scores.data_ptr()[idx] = val)
  This crashed the CuTeDSL MLIR optimizer. Never use raw pointer indexing
  inside CuTeDSL kernels.
- REMOVED: Per-thread top-k accumulation + 128-thread SMEM merge. Too complex
  for MLIR, caused SIGABRT during compilation.
- ADDED: MoE-style epilogue (TMEM→regs→activation→SMEM→TMA store→GMEM)
  using paired copy atoms from CUTLASS (epilogue_tmem_copy_and_partition +
  epilogue_smem_copy_and_partition). Structurally identical to the proven
  FusedSwiGLUScaledGroupedGemmKernel epilogue. This SHOULD compile.
- Activation: sqrt(softplus(logit)) in registers (replaces SwiGLU)
- Output: FP32 activated scores written to GMEM via TMA store
- Top-k handled by activation_topk CUDA kernel in Python wrapper

Other changes:
- _activation_topk.py: Added run_fused_activation_topk_pre_activated() for
  top-k + renorm on pre-activated scores (PyTorch reference, not CUDA kernel)
- dense_router_dispatch_nvfp4_fused: Updated to match new kernel API
- Kernel now uses standard _compute_stages() for SMEM budget calculation
- Kernel now uses compute_epilogue_tile_shape() for epi_tile (not hardcoded)
- C pipeline (PipelineTmaStore) added for SMEM→GMEM overlap

"""Run top-k + renormalization on pre-activated scores.
The CUDA kernel is called with logits=activated_scores.
Since the kernel computes sqrt(softplus(logits)) + e_bias,
we pass e_bias=0 and add e_bias ourselves in a pre-step,
then call the kernel with the scores (which are already activated).
Actually, simpler approach: just add e_bias to activated_scores,
then call the standard kernel with e_bias=0. The kernel will
compute sqrt(softplus(score + 0)) = sqrt(softplus(score)).
But that double-applies softplus!
Correct approach: Add a dedicated kernel entry point that
skips activation and just does top-k + renorm.
For now, use the existing kernel with a workaround:
pre-add e_bias to get selection scores, do top-k on those,
then gather the unbiased activations for weights.
