Vijay Janapa Reddi bed1c24f7f Setup proper student/instructor versions with NBDev
🎯 Student Version (Visible):
- All functions raise NotImplementedError('Student implementation required')
- Clear TODO instructions with specific guidance
- Test cells handle NotImplementedError gracefully
- Students must implement everything from scratch

🔧 Instructor Version (Hidden with #|hide):
- Complete working implementations
- Same function signatures as student version
- Production-ready code for package export

📚 Added MODULE_GENERATION_GUIDE.md:
- Clear instructions for creating student/instructor modules
- NBDev workflow documentation
- Module structure patterns and templates
- Generation commands and checklist

🔄 Generation Flow:
1. Write .py with student stubs + hidden instructor solutions
2. Convert to notebook: jupytext --to notebook module_dev.py
3. Export package: python bin/tito.py sync --module name
4. Package gets instructor solutions, students see exercises

Perfect foundation for all TinyTorch modules
