Log-Scale Self-Similar Activation

Replace a conventional scalar activation by a geometrically indexed family of affine pieces whose slope changes with the logarithmic magnitude of the input. The same two endpoint parameters are reused across all scales, giving a compact, explicitly scale-aware activation that can represent different responses for exponentially separated activation magnitudes.
