Rohit Ghumare dda194f840 fix(quiz): correct answer is always in the same position (slot B) (#381)
Every "Test Your Understanding" quiz placed the correct answer in option B.
Across the 2026 questions in 338 quiz files the correct answer sat at index 1
in 61.5% of cases (uniform would be ~25%), and 107 files had every answer at B,
making the quizzes guessable without reading them.

scripts/debias_quizzes.py rewrites each question's option order with a
deterministic, content-seeded permutation and updates the correct index to
follow the moved answer. It is idempotent: options are canonicalised to a sorted
base before permuting, so re-running produces byte-identical output. Questions
whose options reference each other by position ("all of the above", "both A and
B") are left untouched. The correct-answer value, the option set, and every
explanation are preserved exactly; only order and the index change.

Result: A 23.8% / B 26.3% / C 23.5% / D 26.4%.

The script doubles as a CI guard: `--check` exits non-zero if any quiz is not
de-biased, wired into the curriculum workflow so new lessons cannot regress.

Fixes #368

"Provenance is required by SPARQL",
"It speeds up extraction",
"Provenance changes the ontology",

"question": "What does canonicalization of relations do?",
"options": [
"Adds embeddings",
"Removes triples",
"Maps surface verb phrases (e.g. 'was born in', 'is a native of') onto a fixed property id so the graph is queryable",
"Translates the document"

"correct": 2,
"explanation": "Canonicalization collapses paraphrases into canonical KG property ids."

"Pronouns like 'he founded Apple' must be resolved to a named entity before triple extraction",

"Coref provides positions",
"Coref adds embeddings"

"correct": 2,

"Required by RDF",
"To remove NIL entities",
