NUMA CPU/memory pinning is no longer worthwhile: the FPGA DMA buffers are
placed device-local by the kernel (dma_alloc_coherent), the big RAM ring
buffer is random-access (first-touch handles placement), and GPU work is
already spread across all visible devices. So drop the pinning entirely
and with it libnuma.
- Delete NUMAHWPolicy; the only concern worth keeping - GPU selection -
is done directly via pin_gpu() (round-robin over visible GPUs) in the
indexer pool and the Lite analysis threads. CPU-only threads
(FPGA acquire/pedestal/summation/frame-transform) no longer bind
anything.
- Drop get_gpu_numa_node() (sysfs lookup) - only SelectGPUAndItsNUMA
used it.
- numa_policy broker setting is deprecated and ignored (kept in the API
for backward compatibility; warns once on startup).
- Remove NUMA_LIBRARY / numa.h / numaif.h detection from CMake.
- Docs: drop the NUMA dependency, remove the numa_policy config example,
and document running multiple brokers on disjoint GPUs via
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES.
- Remove NUMA_GPU_REVIEW.md (the planning note; this work is now done).

This is an UNSTABLE release. The release has significant modifications and bug fixes, if things go wrong, it is better to revert to 1.0.0-rc.132.
* jfjoch_broker: Further reduce startup time for DECTRIS detectors by selectively modifying SIMPLON parameters on `/start`
* jfjoch_broker: Further reduce startup time for DECTRIS detectors by not setting beam center and detector distance via SIMPLON API on '/start'
* jfjoch_broker: Add an extra message to ZeroMQ puller ready to monitor Lite worklow preparation time
* jfjoch_broker: Image buffer configuration is postponed for Lite receiver flow till start message is received
* jfjoch_broker: Use nanoseconds internally for frame/image/readout time
* jfjoch_broker: Extra messages added for receiver operation (to be removed after debugging finished)
* jfojch_broker: Improve profiling of different data analysis steps
* jfjoch_broker: Record integration reflection count
* jfjoch_broker: Fix bug where ZeroMQ preview frequency was confusing time units (micro vs. milliseconds)
* jfjoch_broker: Fix bug where '/wait_till_done' got deadlocked
* jfjoch_writer: Fix confusion between NaN and zero in floating-point datasets
**Breaking changes**: detector definition is now using nanoseconds to define minimum frame time, minimum count time and readout time.

* jfjoch_broker: Significant improvements in TCP image socket, as a viable alternative for ZeroMQ sockets (only a single port on broker side, dynamically change number of writers, acknowledgments for written files)
* jfjoch_broker: Delta phi is calculated also for still data in Bragg prediction
* jfjoch_broker: Image pusher statistics are accessible via the REST interface
* jfjoch_writer: Supports TCP image socket and for these auto-forking option
