Conversation
Conv2d/Conv1d backward (transposed grad_input, accumulating grad_weight/grad_bias), Flatten/pool/Scale backward (opt-in accumulating grad_scale), and LIF/IF/CubaLIF backward with the surrogate through the spike output and zero gradient through the hard-reset branch. Tests are hand closed forms plus a central-difference sweep of the conv forward ops.

Closes #40, closes #41.
Backward ops following the existing _backward conventions in ops.h:
Tests: new tests/test_backward.c with hand closed forms, a central-difference sweep of the conv forward ops (stride/pad/dilation/multi-channel), both spike branches pinned by the forward op, and wiring rejections. Debug, Release, and ASan/UBSan ctest runs pass 36/36 locally.
