zero-shot-ie-bench: GLiNER 2.5, GLiFormer, GLiClass, Laya, Von and Jev in one web UI

# zero-shot-ie-bench

Seven zero-shot information-extraction and classification families —
extractor encoders, a purpose-built classifier, and typed-decision engines
(local and cloud) — demoed, benchmarked, and cross-compared in one repo
with a web UI.

The GLiNER lineage forked: Urchade Zaratiana (original GLiNER author,
ex-Knowledgator) is on the GLiNER2 paper with Fastino; Knowledgator kept the
classic `gliner` package, built GLiFormer on it and also maintains GLiClass.
Laya's card positions it explicitly as the open local counterpart of cloud
Jev; von speaks the same System On
