Dragan Spiridonov 2febbb813c revert(python): keep the small base wheel — P6 stays source-build-only for now ...

Reverses the release-wheel packaging change from 3ed43e9a after review.

That commit built the published wheels with `--features sota` so
`pip install wifi-densepose[aether]` would work. But it did so by abandoning a
DELIBERATE, guarded design: `default = []`, the
RuView#1387-default-wheel-budget-config fix-marker, and the wheel-size-budget
job exist specifically to keep the base wheel small and make SOTA opt-in
(ADR-117 §5.4). Building SOTA into every published wheel makes the base fat,
turns the `[aether]`/`[mat]`/`[meridian]` extras into inert no-ops, and — worse
— leaves the PUBLISHED wheel un-budget-checked (the budget job only builds the
no-features wheel), so the ONNX Runtime dependency the fix-marker anticipates
for `mat` would later balloon the shipped wheel past 5 MiB silently.

A pip extra cannot enable a cargo feature on a prebuilt wheel, so "small base +
opt-in SOTA in binary wheels" is only achievable by splitting into separate
packages — tracked as #1412. Until that lands, P6 is source-build-only, and the
honest thing is to say so.

This commit:
- Restores pip-release.yml to its original state (no --features in the release
  build; original smoke test). Net packaging change across the branch is now
  ZERO — the small-base design is fully intact.
- Points the aether/mat/meridian import shims at the real interim path: a source
  build with `--features <x>` (or `--features sota`), and #1412 for the binary
  wheels follow-up. The earlier revision wrongly claimed "the official wheels
  include it", which is only true once #1412 ships.

KEPT from 3ed43e9a (correct regardless of packaging): the AETHER parity tests
are now arch-portable — they compare a golden VECTOR within tolerance instead of
a SHA-256 of raw f32 bytes, which only ever matched the one architecture that
generated it and failed on the aarch64/macOS-arm wheels this project builds.

Verified on aarch64/macOS with a `--features sota` build (as python-ci does):
test_aether 13, test_mat 7, test_meridian 13 pass; full suite unaffected.
