//! WgslBackwardPass — backward through transformer layers via wgpu (§26 Step 0d.3)
//!
//! Orchestrates existing WGSL backward shaders from trueno:
//! - GEMM backward A/B (grad_a = grad_c @ B^T, grad_b = A^T @ grad_c)
//! - RMSNorm backward
//! - SiLU backward
//! - NF4 dequant (re-dequantize frozen weights for backward GEMM)
//!
//! Computes LoRA gradients for all 7 projections per layer:
//! q_proj, k_proj, v_proj, o_proj, gate_proj, up_proj, down_proj
//!
//! Zero unsafe, zero FFI. All via wgpu safe Rust API.

/// Backward pass through a single transformer layer.
///
/// Given `grad_output` (gradient of loss w.r.t. this layer's output),
/// computes:
/// 1. LoRA gradients for all 7 projections
/// 2. `grad_input` (gradient w.r.t. this layer's input, for the previous layer)
///
/// # Architecture
///
/// The backward mirrors the forward in reverse:
/// ```text
/// grad_hidden' (from next layer or loss)
///   → Residual backward (copy to both branches)
///   → Down projection backward → grad_silu
///   → SwiGLU backward → grad_gate, grad_up
///   → Gate/Up projection backward → grad_ffn_norm_out
///   → FFN RMSNorm backward → grad_ffn_input
///   → Residual backward (copy to both branches)
///   → O projection backward → grad_attn_out
///   → [Attention backward skipped — frozen, no LoRA on attention weights]
///   → Q/K/V projection backward → grad_attn_norm_out
///   → Attn RMSNorm backward → grad_hidden
/// ```
///
/// For QLoRA, attention backward is simplified: Q/K/V projections have LoRA,
/// but the attention computation itself (softmax(QK^T)V) is frozen.
/// We only need gradients w.r.t. Q, K, V (the projection outputs), not
/// w.r.t. the attention weights (there are none — attention is parameter-free).
