feat(qmc): add Halton quasi-Monte Carlo sampler

[Samuel-Vangu]

Description

Summary of changes

• Adds Halton, a (optionally scrambled) Halton low-discrepancy sampler, shaped exactly like Sobol and RNG — plugs into MonteCarlo.integrate via the existing rng= slot, no changes to MonteCarlo itself.
• torch backend: pure PyTorch implementation (digit extraction, hierarchical digit-shift scrambling, integer Horner reconstruction), generated directly on the target device — no CPU/NumPy round-trip needed, unlike SobolEngine.
• numpy / jax / tensorflow backends: scipy.stats.qmc.Halton (already a hard dependency), converted to the requested backend.
• Unlike Sobol, does not require the sample size to be a power of two.
• Adds tests/halton_test.py, mirroring sobol_test.py's structure, plus Halton-specific regression tests (see Test plan).

Resolved Issues

• Addresses Low Discrepancy Sequences for MonteCarlo and VEGAS #140 (MonteCarlo path for Halton; VEGAS + JIT support out of scope here, same as for Sobol)

How Has This Been Tested?

• halton_test.py, all backends: analytic accuracy against the test-function collection, Halton < plain-MC error at equal N (fixed seed), seed reproducibility, torch gradient flow
• test_digits_needed_is_per_dimension: deterministic, seed/device-independent unit test guarding against a real bug found during development (a shared digit count across dimensions silently broke equidistribution for every dimension except the one with the smallest base)
• test_halton_column_independent_of_other_dimensions: exact-equality check that a dimension's column never depends on which other dimensions are requested alongside it
• test_halton_matches_scipy_when_unscrambled: pure-PyTorch and SciPy backends agree to within float64 machine epsilon (~2e-16) when scrambling is off, validating the digit extraction/reconstruction independently of the scrambling logic
• test_halton_no_power_of_two_warning: confirms no spurious warning for non-power-of-two N
• ruff format --check . clean (57 files)

@gomezzz, this one's ready for CI too whenever you get a chance — thanks!
