Named keypoints and per-task keypoint metadata in LDF records

[kozlov721]

Purpose

LDF stored keypoints as a positional list of (x, y, visibility) triplets. A
task's keypoint names and edges lived outside the records, in
Metadata.skeletons. A caller set them with set_skeletons. An annotation
could not say which keypoints it holds, so a partial annotation had no way to
identify them.

Horizontal flip pairs and OKS sigmas had no home at all. Nothing in LDF could
record them.

This branch lets an annotation name its keypoints and describe the keypoints of
its task. LuxonisDataset.add promotes the description into the dataset
metadata. The dataset thus stores one definition for each task, and no record
repeats it. That definition also holds the flip pairs and the sigmas, which are
new.

The branch also merges main, which added the older-LDF export target. It keeps
that target correct for keypoints.

Specification

Annotations

• KeypointAnnotation.keypoints is a mapping from keypoint name to a triplet.
  A plain list of triplets still works. Its keypoints then take the positional
  names "0", "1", ....
• New Keypoint named tuple: x, y, visibility. Visibility defaults to
  2. It compares, unpacks and converts to numpy exactly like the triplet it
  replaces.
• New KeypointMetadata model: labels, edges, flip_pairs, sigmas. Edges
  and flip pairs accept keypoint names or indices.
• An annotation may carry edges, flip_pairs and sigmas as flat fields.
  These describe the task, so add moves them into the dataset metadata. A
  stored annotation keeps only the coordinates, in the order the task defines.

Datasets

• set_keypoint_metadata replaces set_skeletons. It adds flip_pairs,
  sigmas and infer_flip_pairs. It replaces only the fields you pass, so you
  can build a definition over several calls.
• get_keypoint_metadata replaces get_skeletons. It returns
  dict[str, KeypointMetadata].
• set_skeletons and get_skeletons remain as deprecated aliases. They forward
  to the new names and emit a DeprecationWarning.
• Metadata.skeletons becomes Metadata.keypoint_metadata. The old key stays a
  validation alias, so a dataset written earlier still opens.
• When you give no flip pairs, add infers them from left and right names.
  The match is deliberately narrow, because a wrong pair mirrors the wrong
  keypoints and never fails.
• A merge warns when two datasets describe different keypoints for one task.
• LDF_VERSION moves from 2.1 to 2.2.

Native export (merge with main)

• NativeExporter accepts keypoint_metadata and ldf_version. The export
  writes the task fields once for each task and split. NativeParser gives them
  back to LuxonisDataset.add.
• LDFDowngrader now drops annotation fields as well as record fields. Without
  this, an export stamped LDF 2.0 still carried the 2.2 keypoint fields. An
  annotation forbids extra fields, so the older install rejected the record.
• New export target LDF 2.1. It keeps sample_metadata. It drops the keypoint
  names, the edges, the flip pairs and the sigmas. Supported targets are now
  2.2, 2.1 and 2.0.

Dependencies & Potential Impact

No new dependencies.

Breaking changes:

• KeypointAnnotation.keypoints is a mapping, not a list. to_numpy() and
  combine_to_numpy() give the same arrays as before.
• get_skeletons() returns dict[str, KeypointMetadata]. It returned
  dict[str, tuple[list[str], list[tuple[int, int]]]]. The call still works,
  but it now warns. Use get_keypoint_metadata().
• luxonis_ml.data.datasets.metadata.Skeletons is gone. luxonis_ml.data never
  exported it, so only a deep import breaks. Use
  luxonis_ml.ldf.KeypointMetadata.
• LDF_VERSION 2.2 means an export made now needs ldf_version="2.1" or
  "2.0" to stay readable by an older luxonis-ml.

luxonis-train, luxonis-eval and modelconverter consume luxonis_ml.data.
They pin published versions, so they see this only at the next release. One
known break waits there. luxonis_train/loaders/luxonis_loader_torch.py:226
does len(skeletons[task][0]), and a KeypointMetadata model has no index. The
fix is self.dataset.get_n_keypoints(), which already gives that number.
luxonis-eval, modelconverter and datadreamer do not use skeletons.

A dataset written before this change still loads. The stored definition holds
labels and edges only, and the new model treats the other fields as empty.
test_a_legacy_dataset_still_loads covers this.

Deployment Plan

None / not applicable. This is a library change with no service to roll out. It
ships in the next luxonis-ml release, and a revert is a plain revert of the
branch.

Testing & Validation

New tests: tests/test_ldf/test_keypoints.py,
tests/test_data/test_keypoint_metadata.py, and the export-version tests in
tests/test_data/test_export_ldf_version.py.

The downgrade fix and the LDF 2.1 target each ship regression tests. Both were
confirmed to fail without their fix.

Run locally on this branch:

• 188 tests pass: tests/test_ldf, test_keypoint_metadata.py,
  test_annotations.py, test_export_ldf_version.py,
  test_dataset_metadata.py and tests/test_data/test_utils.
• 38 doctests pass across luxonis_ml/ldf and luxonis_ml/data.
• pyright --warnings --level warning --project pyproject.toml reports 0 errors
  and 0 warnings.
• pre-commit is clean on every touched file.

Not run locally: the tests whose fixtures download from
gs://luxonis-test-bucket. The local Google credential is not valid, and each
of those tests fails on the download. tests/test_data/test_dataset.py gives
the same result on this branch as on the commit before it, so the branch adds no
failure. CI must cover them.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 0fafd

This change can silently lose named keypoints during export and re-import when metadata counts differ, and its compatibility test can fail by matching a stale reference in its own documentation. Merge should wait until these correctness and test-readiness issues are addressed.

Return copies of the keypoint metadata entries.

Drop the substring assertions after the equality assertion.

Assertion depends on the exact JSON separator format.

The comparison uses a literal string '{"keypoints":[[0.1,0.1,2],[0.2,0.2,2]]}'. It fails if the serializer ever emits spaces after separators. Compare parsed objects instead, and keep the ordering check.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

A keypoint-count mismatch silently drops the labels from the export.

Line 166 marks (part, split, task_name) as attached before the label conversion is attempted. Lines 179-182 convert the payload to a name-keyed mapping only when len(task_keypoints.labels) == len(values).

If the lengths differ, three things happen together:

1. edges, flip_pairs, and sigmas are attached, and they index into a keypoint count that does not match the payload.
2. The labels never reach the export.
3. Every later record of the task is skipped, so no other record can carry the labels.

The re-imported dataset then loses the keypoint names without any message. The mismatch is reachable, because set_keypoint_metadata does not call KeypointMetadata.validate_for, so a stored label list can disagree with the stored keypoint payloads.

Attach the fields only when the count matches, and log a warning otherwise.

🐛 Proposed fix

             key = (self.part, split, task_name)
             if task_keypoints is None or key in self._metadata_attached:
                 continue
+            values = keypoints["keypoints"]
+            if task_keypoints.labels and len(task_keypoints.labels) != len(
+                values

Guarantee dataset cleanup on assertion failure.

If one of the assertions fails, delete_dataset does not run and the local dataset stays on disk. test_parser_scopes_keypoint_metadata_to_the_task_of_its_class above already uses try/finally. Use the same structure here.

     SOLOParser(dataset, DatasetType.SOLO, "pose").parse_split(
         split_path=split_dir
     )

-    keypoints = dataset.get_keypoint_metadata()["pose"]

Skip empty keypoint metadata updates for detection-only SOLO splits.

set_keypoint_metadata([], [], task=...) does not raise. It creates and persists an empty KeypointMetadata entry for the detection task. Skip this call when _get_solo_keypoint_names returns [].

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Prevent the test from matching its own stale reference.

The scan includes the docstring at Lines 29-34. That docstring contains luxonis_ml.ldf.Skeleton, so the test can collect Skeleton and fail because Skeleton is not in ldf.__all__ after the rename. Remove the fully qualified old name from the docstring, or exclude docstrings and comments from the scan.

Proposed fix

-    It pointed at `luxonis_ml.ldf.Skeleton`, which became
+    It pointed at the old `Skeleton` export, which became
