Add figures, Llama-3.2-3B data, and recompile Euro-Par LaTeX paper

Takeaway: Next time I'd tell it upfront which python environment has matplotlib and paperbanana installed, since it burned a lot of turns discovering that the system python, the project venv, and pip were all broken before it found the paperbanana venv that actually worked.

Rewrite HyperCluster Euro-Par paper and generate figures with PaperBanana

Takeaway: Next time I'd keep the session shorter and more scoped — splitting 'update the paper text' from 'generate all figures and recompile' into separate sessions so the context window doesn't balloon and kill the final compile step.
