# What does this PR do?
use SecretStr for OpenAIMixin providers
- RemoteInferenceProviderConfig now has auth_credential: SecretStr
- the default alias is api_key (most common name)
- some providers override to use api_token (RunPod, vLLM, Databricks)
- some providers exclude it (Ollama, TGI, Vertex AI)
addresses #3517
## Test Plan
ci w/ new tests
# What does this PR do?
- implement get_api_key instead of relying on
LiteLLMOpenAIMixin.get_api_key
- remove use of LiteLLMOpenAIMixin
- add default initialize/shutdown methods to OpenAIMixin
- remove __init__s to allow proper pydantic construction
- remove dead code from vllm adapter and associated / duplicate unit
tests
- update vllm adapter to use openaimixin for model registration
- remove ModelRegistryHelper from fireworks & together adapters
- remove Inference from nvidia adapter
- complete type hints on embedding_model_metadata
- allow extra fields on OpenAIMixin, for model_store, __provider_id__,
etc
- new recordings for ollama
- enhance the list models error handling
- update cerebras (remove cerebras-cloud-sdk) and anthropic (custom
model listing) inference adapters
- parametrized test_inference_client_caching
- remove cerebras, databricks, fireworks, together from blanket mypy
exclude
- removed unnecessary litellm deps

# What does this PR do?
on the path to maintainable impls of inference providers. make all
configs instances of RemoteInferenceProviderConfig.
## Test Plan

# What does this PR do?
- remove auto-download of ollama embedding models
- add embedding model metadata to dynamic listing w/ unit test
- add support and tests for allowed_models
- removed inference provider models.py files where dynamic listing is
enabled
- store embedding metadata in embedding_model_metadata field on
inference providers
- make model_entries optional on ModelRegistryHelper and
LiteLLMOpenAIMixin
- make OpenAIMixin a ModelRegistryHelper
- skip base64 embedding test for remote::ollama, always returns floats
- only use OpenAI client for ollama model listing
- remove unused build_model_entry function
- remove unused get_huggingface_repo function
