refactor: remove redundant 'openai' auxiliary provider, clean up docs

Browse Source 
The 'openai' provider was redundant — using OPENAI_BASE_URL +
OPENAI_API_KEY with provider: 'main' already covers direct OpenAI API.

Provider options are now: auto, openrouter, nous, codex, main.

- Removed _try_openai(), _OPENAI_AUX_MODEL, _OPENAI_BASE_URL
- Replaced openai tests with codex provider tests
- Updated all docs to remove 'openai' option and clarify 'main'
- 'main' description now explicitly mentions it works with OpenAI API,
  local models, and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint

Tests: 2467 passed.

| `"openai"` | Force OpenAI direct API at `api.openai.com` (requires `OPENAI_API_KEY`). Supports vision via GPT-4o. |

| `"codex"` | Force Codex OAuth (ChatGPT account). Supports vision via gpt-5.3-codex. |

**Important:** Vision tasks require a multimodal-capable model. In `auto` mode, only OpenRouter and Nous Portal are tried (they route to Gemini, which supports images). The `"openai"` provider also works for vision since GPT-4o supports image input. Setting `provider: "main"` for vision will work only if your main endpoint supports multimodal input.
