Consolidated 2025-06 accomplishments for apple/axlearn. Delivered API simplification by removing the jax_spmd_mode flag, aligning with the project direction away from SPMD mode support in JAX. This change reduces API surface, eliminates host-based replicated jax.Arrays usage, and simplifies maintenance and contributor onboarding. Included targeted refactoring, updated tests, and documentation alignment to reflect the new API surface.
