Fixes: #184

SFT data preparation was filtering out a large fraction of rows because some chat templates emit a trailing newline after the generation prompt that does not appear at the matching position in the full template, causing the strict prefix check in split_template_into_messages to raise ValueError and the row to be dropped (issue #184). The fix replaces the strict-only check with a strict-then-fallback pattern: the original equality check still runs first, so any row the upstream materialize.py processed cleanly produces byte-identical chunks; only when that check fails do we try template_up_to_here.rstrip() and accept the row if the stripped form matches. While in the file, we also harden find_last_user_message_end and split_template_into_messages against conversations with no user message or a trailing user turn — both previously crashed with bare ValueError/IndexError from internal indexing — by raising typed, informative ValueErrors instead. New regression tests cover the issue #184 recovery, byte-identical output on well-behaved templates, and the new input guards.
