Remove verbose batch progress output from train_llm.py

Browse files

Training observations at epoch 35:
- Operation routing: 100% accuracy (instantly learned)
- Overall accuracy: ~36% (3x better than SmolLM2 baseline of 12%)
- Bottleneck: bit extraction from hidden states (a_loss, b_loss ~7-8)

The model perfectly identifies which operation (+, -, *, >, <, ==) to use,
but struggles to extract the actual numerical values (e.g., "47" -> 00101111)
from the LLM's semantic embeddings. This is expected - LLM hidden states
encode meaning, not literal digit values.

Reduced n_batches from 100 to 20 (2,560 samples/epoch instead of 12,800)
for faster iteration. VRAM usage is only 6% with batch_size=128.
