cleanup: remove committed .pyc and redundant Python test, add .gitignore

- CMakeLists.txt: builds turboquant as static library
- TURBOQUANT_BUILD_TESTS option enables ctest roundtrip tests
- tests/roundtrip_test.cpp: validates zero-vector roundtrip and
  gaussian cosine similarity (>=0.99)
- Makefile wrapper for convenience (build/test/clean targets)
- Addresses contributor feedback on spec-to-code gap and CI from #17
