CRITICAL FIX: Switch from ByteLevel to Whitespace pre-tokenizer — fixes 42% UNK rate on domain token sequences

Root cause: ByteLevel pre-tokenizer splits space-separated special tokens like
'[EVT_000] [PRICE_16]' into byte-level fragments ('Ġ[', 'PRICE', '_', '16', ']')
which don't match the special token vocabulary → 42% UNK tokens.

Fix: Use Whitespace pre-tokenizer which splits on spaces and preserves each token
as a whole unit. Special tokens like [EVT_000] are kept intact. Text fields like
'electronics.smartphone' are split on dots by BPE merges (not by pre-tokenizer).

Verified: 0% UNK on realistic domain token sequences after fix.

Also added HF login cell to the e-commerce notebook.
