Add support for using Nous Portal via a direct API key, mirroring
how OpenRouter and other API-key providers work. This gives users a
simpler alternative to the OAuth device-code flow when they already
have a Nous API key.
Changes:
- Add 'nous-api' to PROVIDER_REGISTRY as an api_key provider
pointing to https://inference-api.nousresearch.com/v1
- Add NOUS_API_KEY and NOUS_BASE_URL to OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS
- Add NOUS_API_BASE_URL / NOUS_API_CHAT_URL to hermes_constants
- Add 'Nous Portal API key' as first option in setup wizard
- Add provider aliases (nous_api, nousapi, nous-portal-api)
- Add test for nous-api runtime provider resolution
Closes#644
