Subject: [PATCH] fix(cli): /model picker shows curated models instead of full
 catalog (#10146)

The /model picker called provider_model_ids() which fetches the FULL
live API catalog (hundreds of models for Anthropic, Copilot, etc.) and
only fell back to the curated list when the live fetch failed.

This flips the priority: use the curated model list from
list_authenticated_providers() (same lists as `hermes model` and
gateway pickers), falling back to provider_model_ids() only when the
curated list is empty (e.g. user-defined endpoints).
