Remove superseded parameter-golf docs that present implementation haz…

[devlux76]

…ards

Deleted five documents that contain outdated or explicitly-superseded strategies which could mislead an AI attempting to implement the approach:

• APPROACH_INITIAL.md: proposed WASM training and int5/int6 mixed precision; explicitly superseded by APPROACH_REVISED and then APPROACH
• APPROACH_REVISED.md: intermediate draft with Z₈/Z₁₂/Z₁₆ layer hierarchy, abandoned in favor of uniform Z₄ in the final synthesis
• IMPLEMENTATION.md: tactical roadmap for the initial approach, including TypeScript WASM quantization and the wrong LTC/NCP architecture
• STRATEGY.md: early brainstorm mixing int5/int6 stages, references nonexistent CONTROL_TENSOR and logit_softcap mechanisms
• DESIGN_REVISION_PLAN.md: working notes on what to change in DESIGN.md, not the design itself; implies DESIGN.md is incomplete

Canonical documents retained: APPROACH.md, DESIGN.md, WILDBERGER_RUBINE_REVIEW.md, code.py.

Pull request overview

This PR removes five superseded/outdated “parameter-golf” strategy/roadmap documents from docs/parameter-golf/ to reduce the chance that readers (or AI tools) follow abandoned approaches instead of the current synthesized strategy.

Changes:

• Deleted early strategy drafts (APPROACH_INITIAL.md, APPROACH_REVISED.md) and a tactical roadmap (IMPLEMENTATION.md).
• Deleted an early brainstorming doc (STRATEGY.md) and an internal design-editing notes file (DESIGN_REVISION_PLAN.md).

File	Description
docs/parameter-golf/APPROACH_INITIAL.md	Removed an explicitly superseded initial strategy draft.
docs/parameter-golf/APPROACH_REVISED.md	Removed an intermediate revision draft that’s no longer the canonical approach.
docs/parameter-golf/IMPLEMENTATION.md	Removed an outdated implementation roadmap that no longer matches the current design direction.
docs/parameter-golf/STRATEGY.md	Removed an early strategy brainstorm containing non-canonical/unsupported mechanisms.
docs/parameter-golf/DESIGN_REVISION_PLAN.md	Removed internal working notes about revising DESIGN.md (not the design itself).

Comments suppressed due to low confidence (4)

docs/parameter-golf/APPROACH_REVISED.md:1

• This doc is being deleted, but it is referenced by other retained docs (e.g. docs/parameter-golf/ANALYSIS.md discusses conclusions “in APPROACH_REVISED.md and STRATEGY.md”, and docs/parameter-golf/APPROACH.md links it in “Source documents”). Please update those references (or replace them with stable anchors into ANALYSIS.md/APPROACH.md) to avoid dead links.
  docs/parameter-golf/STRATEGY.md:1
• This doc is being deleted, but it is still referenced by retained docs (docs/parameter-golf/APPROACH.md links it in “Source documents”, and docs/parameter-golf/ANALYSIS.md mentions it by filename). Please update those references so the remaining documentation doesn’t contain broken internal links.
  docs/parameter-golf/IMPLEMENTATION.md:1
• This doc is being deleted, but it is still linked from retained docs (docs/parameter-golf/APPROACH.md includes it in the “Source documents” list). Please update that list (or replace it with a link to an archived copy) so the canonical docs don’t contain dead links.
  docs/parameter-golf/APPROACH_INITIAL.md:1
• This doc is being deleted, but it is still linked from the canonical docs (notably docs/parameter-golf/APPROACH.md “Source documents” list). Deleting it without updating those references will leave broken internal links; either remove/update the links in APPROACH.md/ANALYSIS.md or move this file to an explicit archive location with a clear deprecation banner and update links accordingly.
