feat: Make Safety API optional for meta-reference agents provider

Change Safety API from required to optional dependency, following the
established pattern used for other optional dependencies in Llama Stack.

The provider now starts successfully without Safety API configured.
Requests that explicitly include guardrails will receive a clear error
message when Safety API is unavailable.

This enables local development and testing without Safety API while
maintaining clear error messages when guardrail features are requested.

Closes #4165

"""Tests for making Safety API optional in meta-reference agents provider.
This test suite validates the changes introduced to fix issue #4165, which
allows running the meta-reference agents provider without the Safety API.
Safety API is now an optional dependency, and errors are raised at request time
when guardrails are explicitly requested without Safety API configured.
