Overhaul model system with multi-stage training, variants, benchmarks, and eval

Replace the single-stage training + flat capability score with a realistic AI
development pipeline: pre-training with Chinchilla scaling laws, SFT with
specializations, alignment with safety/capability tradeoffs (RLHF/DPO/Constitutional),
model families with distillation/fine-tuning/quantization variants, named benchmark
suite with compute-costing eval jobs, and segment-specific market quality.

Phases 1-6 of the model rework plan: new types, engine rewrite, save migration,
training events/risk system, concurrent training, variant creation, benchmark
evaluation with leaderboard, and market integration.
