Verification: Trainer refactoring is functionally equivalent

[Copilot]

Verified that the recent trainer refactoring maintains functional equivalence with the original implementation. No bugs found.

Analysis Performed

Loss Computation

• Old: F.cross_entropy(logits[masked_indices], input_ids[masked_indices])
• New: F.cross_entropy(logits.transpose(1,2), input_ids) * masked_mask
• Mathematically equivalent; new version computes for all positions then masks

Loss Normalization

• Renamed loss_normalization_type → loss_norm_type
• Equivalent computation using maskable_mask.sum() vs token_cnt_per_seq

Metrics System

• Migrated from EpochPPLMeter to torchmetrics.MeanMetric
• Identical NLL/perplexity values, improved DDP support

API Changes

• Trainers use config dataclasses: MDLMConfig, BD3LMConfig, EditFlowConfig
• All example scripts and pipeline trainers updated correctly
• Consistent HfArgumentParser usage

Sampler Refactoring

• Functions marked private: _bd3lm_attention_mask, _prepare_for_sampling, _diffusion_step_block
• No logic changes, all call sites updated

All changes are structural improvements with zero functional regressions.
