transformer-gym: add Ultra-Scale Playbook theory digest
theory/ultrascale.md — a condensed digest of the 246-page HuggingFace book:
memory budget and the 16/20 bytes-per-parameter tables, activation
recomputation, ZeRO stages with their communication cost, tensor + sequence
parallelism (conjugate f/f* and g/g* transitions), context parallelism and
zig-zag balancing, pipeline schedules through zero-bubble and DualPipe (B/W
backward decomposition), expert parallelism, the three-step configuration
search with benchmark takeaways, kernel fusion, FlashAttention and mixed
precision (format table, epsilon, the three fp16 tricks, why naive fp8
diverges), plus profiling and overlap math.

Each section cross-links to the gym tasks where the corresponding mistake is
reproduced in code. Readable via `python gym.py book [N]` and published as a
separate section of the site (13 sections, 23 cross-links).
