docs(readme): update feature and platform support

[Flink-ddd]

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Documentation
  • Reorganized the README to present architecture and current scope before benchmark highlights.
  • Added details on RL-native operator coverage, roadmap integrations, and the validated Qwen3-8B Dense with VIME path.
  • Clarified that end-to-end support and hardware claims are limited to this path.
  • Updated project descriptions and tagline to emphasize cross-hardware, multi-model RL post-training infrastructure.
  • Added a LinkedIn badge.
  • Removed supplementary benchmark material and the Operator Families table.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The README positions RL-Kernel as cross-hardware, multi-model RL post-training infrastructure. It documents the architecture, current Qwen3-8B Dense and VIME scope, roadmap items, benchmark presentation, installation flow, and project resources.

Changes

README Documentation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Project positioning and scope README.md	Updates the tagline, navigation, RL-native operator coverage, validated Qwen3-8B Dense and VIME path, and current scope table.
Architecture and benchmark presentation README.md	Adds architecture and roadmap details, retains the benchmark comparison, removes supplementary benchmark material and links, and limits hardware claims to the Qwen3-8B Dense path.
Installation and project resources README.md	Retains the source-install flow and removes the Operator Families and standalone Documentation sections while retaining community, contribution, and acknowledgment content.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 11ee8

The README update may direct users to a stale Dense FFN resource and leave benchmark results without a direct immutable source. These documentation issues are bounded but should be corrected before relying on the published claims.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Point the Dense FFN link at a maintained operator page.

docs/operators/README.md lists matmul.md as the current matrix-multiplication page, but it does not list det-gemm.md. This new link is therefore not backed by the maintained operator catalog and may send readers to a missing or undocumented page. Link to the maintained GEMM/Matmul page, or add det-gemm.md to the operator catalog.

Proposed link update

-| **Dense FFN** | Deterministic GEMM, SiLU, and SwiGLU paths | [GEMM](./docs/operators/det-gemm.md) · [Activations](./docs/operators/activation.md) |
+| **Dense FFN** | Deterministic GEMM, SiLU, and SwiGLU paths | [Matmul](./docs/operators/matmul.md) · [Activations](./docs/operators/activation.md) |

📝 Committable suggestion

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

111-114: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Anchor the benchmark citation to the immutable result artifact.

Line 111 points to PR #377. As of September 5, 2026, PR #377 is still open, and its current report states that no throughput or step-time figure is published because the sealed runs are not version-matched. The table values are recorded in the separate version-aligned result artifact at commit 40db4d. (github.com)

Because this change removes the experiment, report, CSV, and statistics links, readers cannot reliably reconcile the table with its source. Link to the immutable result README or commit, and retain the single-seed, version-aligned scope in this section.
