fix(middleware): parse OpenAI-spec tool_choice in /v1/chat/completions (#9559)
* fix(middleware): parse OpenAI-spec tool_choice in /v1/chat/completions

Follows up on #9526 (the 3-site setter fix) by addressing the remaining
clause in #9508 — string mode and OpenAI-spec specific-function shape both
silently failed in the /v1/chat/completions parsing path.

* fix(middleware): restore LF endings and cover tool_choice parsing with specs

The previous commit on this branch saved core/http/middleware/request.go
with CRLF line endings, ballooning the diff against master to 684 / 651
for what is in reality a ~50-line parsing change. Restore LF (matches
.editorconfig end_of_line = lf).

Add 11 Ginkgo specs under "SetModelAndConfig tool_choice parsing
(chat completions)" that parallel the existing MergeOpenResponsesConfig
specs from #9509. They drive the full middleware chain (SetModelAndConfig
+ SetOpenAIRequest) and assert:

  * "required"  -> ShouldUseFunctions=true, no specific name
  * "none"      -> ShouldUseFunctions=false (tools disabled per OpenAI spec)
  * "auto"      -> default, tools available, no specific name
  * {type:function, function:{name:X}}  (spec)    -> X is forced
  * {type:function, name:X}             (legacy)  -> X is forced
  * nested wins when both forms are present
  * malformed shapes (no type, wrong type, no name, empty name) are no-ops

Update the inline comment on the string case to describe the actual
mechanism: "none" reaches SetFunctionCallString("none") downstream and
is then honored by ShouldUseFunctions() returning false. Before this PR
json.Unmarshal([]byte("none"), &functions.Tool{}) failed silently, so
"none" was ignored - making "none" actually work is a real behavior fix
this PR brings.

* fix(middleware): preserve pre-#9559 support for JSON-string-encoded tool_choice

Some non-spec clients send tool_choice as a JSON-encoded string of an
object form, e.g. "{\"type\":\"function\",\"function\":{\"name\":\"X\"}}".
The pre-#9559 code accepted this by accident: its case string: branch
ran json.Unmarshal([]byte(content), &functions.Tool{}), which succeeded
for that double-encoded shape even though it failed for the legitimate
plain string modes "auto" / "none" / "required".

The first version of this PR routed every string straight to
SetFunctionCallString as a mode, which fixed the plain-string cases but
silently regressed the double-encoded one (funcs.Select("{...}") returns
nothing). Restore the fallback: when a string looks like a JSON object,
try parsing it as a tool_choice map first; fall through to mode-string
handling only when no usable name comes out.

Factor the map-name extraction into a small helper
(extractToolChoiceFunctionName) so the string-fallback and the regular
map case go through identical code, and accept both the OpenAI-spec
nested shape and the legacy/Anthropic flat shape from either entry
point.

Add 3 Ginkgo specs covering the double-encoded case (nested form, legacy
form, and the fall-through when the JSON has no usable name).

* test(middleware): silence errcheck on AfterEach os.RemoveAll

The new tool_choice parsing tests added a second AfterEach that calls
os.RemoveAll(modelDir) without checking the error; errcheck flagged it.
Suppress with the standard _ = idiom. The pre-existing AfterEach on the
earlier Describe still elides the check the same way it did before -
leaving that untouched to keep this commit minimal.
