feat(config): add YAML configuration system

- Add default_ppo.yaml template for training configurations
- Create configs/README.md with usage documentation
- Enable per-researcher configuration without code changes
- Support YAML config files with CLI parameter overrides
- Document how to set personal WandB credentials safely

This allows researchers to maintain personal configs without
committing credentials to the repository.

# Configuration Files
This directory contains configuration files for training experiments.
## Usage
Configuration files use YAML format and allow you to specify all training parameters in one place.
### Quick Start
Copy the default configuration template:
```bash
cp configs/default_ppo.yaml configs/my_experiment.yaml
```
Edit `my_experiment.yaml` to customize your experiment settings, particularly:
- `wandb_entity`: Your WandB username or team name
- `track`: Set to `true` to enable WandB logging
- Training hyperparameters as needed
Run training with your config:
```bash
python src/train.py --config configs/my_experiment.yaml
```
### Override Parameters
You can override any parameter from the command line:
```bash
python src/train.py --config configs/my_experiment.yaml --learning-rate 0.001 --num-envs 32
```
### Configuration for Different Users
Each researcher should create their own config file with their WandB settings:
```yaml
# configs/researcher_name.yaml
exp_name: "researcher_name_experiment"
track: true
wandb_project_name: "PPO-Modularity"
wandb_entity: "your-wandb-username" # Change this!
```
This approach allows everyone to use the codebase without modifying source files.
## Available Configurations
- `default_ppo.yaml` - Default PPO training configuration template
