Feature: Remove the YOLO-World open-vocabulary engine

User Story

As a maintainer of dora-zed,
I want the open-vocabulary detection engine removed,
so that the node carries no CLIP tokenizer, text encoder or runtime vocabulary machinery.

Requirements

Delete src/engines/yoloworld_onnx.cc and src/engines/yoloworld_onnx.h.
Delete src/util/clip_tokenizer.h.
Delete src/test_yoloworld_onnx.cc and its CMakeLists.txt target.
Delete scripts/export_yoloworld.py and scripts/export_clip_text_encoder.py.
Remove the update_vocabulary input handling from src/main.cc.
Remove yoloworld_onnx and the open_vocab alias from the ZED_ENGINE dispatch.
Remove ZED_ONNX_TEXT_ENCODER_PATH, ZED_ONNX_CLIP_VOCAB and ZED_ONNX_CLIP_MERGES.
Remove Engine::set_labels and label_names if no remaining engine uses them.
Remove the open-vocabulary sections from README.md.

Acceptance Criteria

git grep -i -e yoloworld -e open_vocab -e clip returns no matches.
The project configures and builds.
README.md documents no open-vocabulary engine and no update_vocabulary input.

Notes

802 LoC across engine (415), CLIP tokenizer (226), test (114) and header (47).
The code remains reachable at tag v0.1.0.
