load_roi_data: filter on barrier_opening.csv and stamp opening_s

For every session (training and testing alike), the loader now looks
up the corresponding row in barrier_opening.csv and:
  - drops the read if the ROI is in bad_rois (barrier never opened
    for that fly so its tracking has no biological meaning)
  - drops the read if the session is flagged unusable
  - stamps the session's opening_s onto every sample so downstream
    code can compute t_from_opening = t - opening_s

Tested against ETHOSCOPE_082 2024-09-17: training (bad_rois=1,3,5)
correctly drops ROIs 1/3/5; testing keeps all six; opening_s differs
between sessions as expected (646.8 vs 154.7).

Opt out with apply_barrier_filter=False if you need raw data.
