teknium1 9135bd35c7 fix(aux): title calls on reasoning-mandatory routes stop sending a doomed disable
The title lane asks for thinking off (reasoning_config={"enabled": False}). A route
whose model cannot disable reasoning answers 400 "Reasoning is mandatory for this
endpoint and cannot be disabled"; the ladder then retried at the floor effort and
memoised the route, but only in memory. OpenRouter and the Nous Portal already
publish reasoning.mandatory per model in /v1/models, and Hermes mirrors that
catalog to cache/reasoning_caps.json. The aux floor never read it, so an aux-only
OpenRouter route (nothing else warms that catalog) paid the failed round-trip in
every process.

known_reasoning_floor now also floors a thinking-off aux call when the route's
catalog (memory, then disk mirror; never HTTP) flags the model mandatory, and
kicks the background warm on a cold catalog so the mirror answers every later
call and process. Optional-reasoning models keep their disable.

"""Reasoning floor for auxiliary requests: when a route refuses to switch reasoning OFF, step it UP.
Aux lanes that want speed over thought (title generation: ``max_tokens=64``, JSON body) send the
provider's thinking-off encoding — top-level ``reasoning_effort: "none"`` on the custom profile,
``extra_body.reasoning: {"enabled": false}`` on OpenRouter-shaped relays, ``_reasoning_config`` on the
Anthropic Messages adapters. Some endpoints understand the field but refuse the disable ("Reasoning is
mandatory for this endpoint and cannot be disabled" — the Nous Portal on gpt-6-astra); before this
module every title call there 400'd and the session stayed untitled.
The recovery is a *step up*, not a strip: the same request goes out again at the lowest effort every
reasoning wire accepts (``low``; ``minimal`` is rejected by o-series and Claude), and the (route, model)
pair is memoised so the next disabled-reasoning aux call on it starts at the floor instead of burning
the guaranteed 400 first. Dropping the field would also succeed once, but it says nothing about the
next call and hands the effort choice back to the provider default (often ``medium`` or higher, the
opposite of what a thinking-off caller asked for).
