6c6444396d fix(#3750): preserve LM Studio auth on reasoning probe (self-rebased #3837 + credential hardening) (#4202)
* fix(#3750): preserve LM Studio auth on reasoning probe

Rebased rodboev's #3837 onto current master (master reworked
resolve_model_reasoning_efforts via #3431 with a combined hermes_cli
import + _nested_route_reasoning_denied guard). Threaded the api_key
resolution + the _lmstudio_model_reasoning_options wrapper + the
HTTP-fallback probe into master's current structure; intent preserved
byte-identically (+164/-24, same as the original PR diff).

* fix(#3837): gate LM Studio probe credential to configured endpoint + no-redirect opener

Codex security review (CORE) on the rebased #3837: GET /api/reasoning accepts
a caller-supplied base_url, and the new probe attached the configured LM Studio
API key as a Bearer token; urllib also re-sends Authorization across redirects.
Together that could exfiltrate the stored credential to an attacker-controlled
host. (master only escalates here because master probed WITHOUT a key.)

Fixes:
1. Only forward the LM Studio credential when the probe target normalizes to
   the configured LM Studio base URL (reuses _normalize_base_url_for_match);
   a caller-supplied non-matching base_url is probed keyless.
2. _lmstudio_reasoning_probe_options_fallback uses a no-redirect opener
   (_NoRedirectHandler) so a 3xx can't forward the Authorization header onward.
3. Two regression tests: caller-supplied base_url drops the key; redirect is
   not followed (credential never reaches the redirect target).

* fix(#3837): route ALL credentialed LM Studio probes through the no-redirect probe

Codex re-gate caught that the first fix only hardened the built-in fallback;
in production hermes_cli IS importable, so the preferred path called
hermes_cli.models.lmstudio_model_reasoning_options(..., api_key=...) which uses
plain urlopen and still follows redirects with the credential.

Fix: _lmstudio_model_reasoning_options now short-circuits to the built-in
no-redirect probe whenever api_key is set; the hermes_cli path is used ONLY for
keyless probes (no credential to leak). Reworked tests accordingly:
- test_credentialed_probe_never_calls_hermes_cli: credentialed probe bypasses CLI
- test_keyless_probe_logs_signature_mismatch_before_fallback: keyless CLI degrade
- test_credentialed_probe_does_not_follow_redirects_end_to_end: E2E through
  resolve_model_reasoning_efforts with real hermes_cli; redirect target never hit

Verified both security tests fail without the guard and pass with it.
