PERMANENCE β€” composable reward rubrics.
Implements the four reward components of the environment as individual
``openenv.core.Rubric`` subclasses, then composes them via
``WeightedSum`` β€” exactly the pattern the hackathon judging criteria
explicitly calls out:
"Uses OpenEnv's Rubric system thoughtfully
(composable rubrics > monolithic scoring)"
The rubrics operate on an ``EpisodeResult`` (the "observation" in our
terminology) and ignore the action argument β€” they are episode-end
evaluators, not step-level hooks.
Each rubric returns a normalised float in [0.0, 1.0] except
``CatastrophePenaltyRubric`` which returns a non-positive penalty that
the composition subtracts. A small adapter inverts its sign so it fits
the ``WeightedSum`` interface.
