Bump usd-core dependency to 26.05 to fix USD physics crash

[mataylor-nvidia]

Resolves a fatal crash in libusd_ms triggered by LoadUsdPhysicsFromRange, caused by ABI incompatibility in the 25.11 USD library (nvbugspro #6441062).

Note this fix will work for kitless, but kit brings it's own USD

The ovphysx_manager.py comment referencing 25.11 was left unchanged — it describes the version mismatch between IsaacSim's bundled pxr and ovphysx's internal check, which is a separate dependency from the usd-core PyPI pin.

@classmethod
    def _construct_physx(cls, ovphysx_device: str, gpu_index: int) -> None:
        """Bootstrap the ``ovphysx`` wheel and create the :class:`ovphysx.PhysX` instance.

        Runs once per process.  Configures worker threads, registers the
        process-exit ``os._exit(0)`` handler, and stores the result on
        ``cls._physx``.  See HACK on :meth:`_release_physx` for why the
        instance must outlive every individual :class:`SimulationContext`.
        """
        # HACK (temporary): hide pxr from sys.modules during ovphysx bootstrap.
        # IsaacSim's pxr reports version 0.25.5 (pip convention) while ovphysx
        # expects 25.11 (OpenUSD release convention).  Hiding pxr causes
        # ovphysx.check_usd_compatibility() to skip the Python-side version
        # check.  This should go away once ovphysx ships a namespaced USD
        # copy with isolated symbols (same "import pxr" API, no collision).

Greptile Summary

This PR updates the kitless USD dependency to the USD 26 line. The main changes are:

• Bumps the x86_64 usd-core range to >=26.05,<27.0.
• Adds launcher setup for omni.usd.libs so its pxr package and native libraries can take precedence.
• Updates USD version expectations in metadata and benchmark tests.
• Adds a changelog entry for the dependency bump and crash fix.

Confidence Score: 5/5

This looks safe to merge.

• No blocking issues found in the changed code.
