Validate and build multi-arm robot articulations in USD for Isaac Sim 6 / Lab. Covers programmatic assembly (chassis + arms + `FixedJoint`s), `ArticulationRootAPI` placement, the modern Isaac Robot Schema overlay (`IsaacRobotAPI`, `IsaacLinkAPI`, `IsaacJointAPI`, `IsaacSiteAPI`, `IsaacNamedPose`, `KinematicChain`), `PopulateRobotSchemaFromArticulation` for retrofitting existing USDs, flatten-before-deploy, and the validation checklist (articulation roots, joint connections, robot-schema integrity, floating arms). Use when creating multi-limb robots in USD, retrofitting an existing articulation with the Robot Schema, debugging "floating arms" or disconnected geometry, or flattening articulations for deployment to Isaac Lab.
