Gitflow release branch: version bump, CHANGELOG, and README highlights for 0.51.0 — ternary/
BitNet weights join the memory-mapped weight story 0.50.0 started for every other quant format.

Headline: off-heap storage removes the Android ART heap-cap OOM risk for ternary weights, a
SEQUENTIAL-layout (NeoGPU-converted) GGUF now gets a true zero-copy mmap load with no repack at
all, and a new AOT converter (I2sAotConverter) lets a build that owns its model pipeline pay
the repack cost once, offline. See CHANGELOG.md's 0.51.0 entry for the full technical writeup
(#1202, #1203, #1207, #1211).

Merging to main / tagging is deferred — this PR only brings the release commits back into
develop, matching the 0.50.0 gitflow shape.

What changed

  • CHANGELOG.md: full 0.51.0 entry
  • README.md: "What's New" trimmed to a short, current-release-only highlight list pointing to
    CHANGELOG.md for full history (it had grown into a "Previously, in ..." cascade back to
    0.38.0); BOM coordinate + Android classifier tutorial dependency snippet bumped
  • docs/antora.yml: skainet_version bumped (had drifted at 0.49.0 across the 0.50.0 release)
  • Kernel-support matrix + operator reference regenerated at 0.51.0
  • gradle.properties: VERSION_NAME=0.51.0

Test plan

…ce docs

The release entry for the ternary/off-heap-storage + AOT-conversion arc
(#1202/#1203/#1207/#1211): CHANGELOG gets the full technical writeup;
README's "What's New" is trimmed to a short, current-release-only
highlight list pointing to CHANGELOG.md for full history instead of
carrying the growing "Previously, in ..." cascade inline (it had grown
back to 0.38.0). BOM coordinate and the Android classifier tutorial's
dependency snippet bumped to 0.51.0; docs/antora.yml's skainet_version
likewise (both had drifted at 0.49.0 across the 0.50.0 release).
Kernel-support matrix and operator reference regenerated at 0.51.0.
