Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the Spectrum paper (arXiv:2406.06623) and its implementation at github.com/cognitivecomputations/spectrum. Understand how it selects layers based on Signal to Noise Ratio. Then identify where to integrate this into unsloth's model training pipeline, likely during the layer freezing step. Implement a configuration option to enable Spectrum fine tuning.
