nbs: persona_steering_v3 -- one demo_steer call, all 7 methods, auto comparison table

Consolidates persona_steering + persona_steering_v2: load once, build every vector, one
demo_steer(vecs, DILEMMA, readout=YESNO) call does per-method searched-anchor demos + the
end comparison table. Old persona notebooks removed once this validates headless.
