fix(opencode): match the upstream free-tier request contract (#14013)

Match the upstream OpenCode free-tier request contract (issue #13935): canonical ses_/msg_ identity ids, versioned User-Agent, and the measured body requirements (stream:true + non-empty tools) with a learn-and-reuse tool-name cache, so no-auth oc/* requests stop being refused with 403 FreeTierError. Supersedes #13937 (session regex and minimum-version rule kept, credited below). Complements #14011 (refusal classification) and #13819 (stream_options strip), both already merged.

+- **fix(opencode):** keyless OpenCode models answer again instead of returning `403` — requests now carry a versioned OpenCode user-agent, canonical session and request ids derived from the existing conversation fingerprint, a streamed upstream request, and a tool list. The upstream inspects which tool names a request declares, so rather than pinning a list, OmniRoute reuses the one a request of the same conversation was last seen getting through: a title or a summary, which its client sends without tools, goes out with the list that client already declared. Two opt-outs (`OPENCODE_FREE_TIER_REQUEST_CONTRACT`, `OPENCODE_FREE_TIER_PLACEHOLDER_TOOLS`) ([#14013](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/pull/14013)) — thanks @maxmad64bis (with thanks to @AStupidBear for the identity-header work in #13937)

				- fix(opencode): keyless OpenCode models answer again instead of returning `403` — requests now carry a versioned OpenCode user-agent, canonical session and request ids derived from the existing conversation fingerprint, a streamed upstream request, and a tool list. The upstream inspects which tool names a request declares, so rather than pinning a list, OmniRoute reuses the one a request of the same conversation was last seen getting through: a title or a summary, which its client sends without tools, goes out with the list that client already declared. Two opt-outs (`OPENCODE_FREE_TIER_REQUEST_CONTRACT`, `OPENCODE_FREE_TIER_PLACEHOLDER_TOOLS`) ([#14013](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/pull/14013)) — thanks @maxmad64bis (with thanks to @AStupidBear for the identity-header work in #13937)
