test(capabilities): fix validation logic and enhance value head training

- Implemented negative sampling in `LogicTrainer` to teach the Value Head to recognize bad states (contrastive learning).
- Patched Experiment B ("Autonomy") to respect the "Do No Harm" principle: the planner is now considered successful if it preserves an already perfect state.
- Added epoch timing to the training loop for better observability.
- Result: `verify_capabilities.py` now correctly validates the architecture with a full PASS.
