feat: upgrade to qwen3.5, self-hosted Gitea CI, optimize Docker image

Model upgrade: - qwen2.5:14b → qwen3.5:latest across config, tools, and docs - Added qwen3.5 to multimodal model registry Self-hosted Gitea CI: - .gitea/workflows/tests.yml: lint + test jobs via act_runner - Unified Dockerfile: pre-baked deps from poetry.lock for fast CI - sitepackages=true in tox for ~2s dep resolution (was ~40s) - OLLAMA_URL set to dead port in CI to prevent real LLM calls Test isolation fixes: - Smoke test fixture mocks create_timmy (was hitting real Ollama) - WebSocket sends initial_state before joining broadcast pool (race fix) - Tests use settings.ollama_model/url instead of hardcoded values - skip_ci marker for Ollama-dependent tests, excluded in CI tox envs Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
