- Added support for auxiliary model overrides in the configuration, allowing users to specify providers and models for vision and web extraction tasks.
- Updated the CLI configuration example to include new auxiliary model settings.
- Enhanced the environment variable mapping in the CLI to accommodate auxiliary model configurations.

The web_extract_tool was stripping the 'url' key during its output
trimming step, but documentation in 3 places claimed it was present.
This caused KeyError when accessing result['url'] in execute_code
scripts, especially when extracting from multiple URLs.
Changes:
- web_tools.py: Add 'url' back to trimmed_results output
- code_execution_tool.py: Add 'title' to _TOOL_STUBS docstring and
_TOOL_DOC_LINES so docs match actual {url, title, content, error}

On top of PR #460: self-hosted Firecrawl instances don't require an API
key (USE_DB_AUTHENTICATION=false), so don't force users to set a dummy
FIRECRAWL_API_KEY when FIRECRAWL_API_URL is set. Also adds a proper
self-hosting section to the configuration docs explaining what you get,
what you lose, and how to set it up (Docker stack, tradeoffs vs cloud).
Added 2 more tests (URL-only without key, neither-set raises).
Adds optional FIRECRAWL_API_URL environment variable to support
self-hosted Firecrawl deployments alongside the cloud service.
- Add FIRECRAWL_API_URL to optional env vars in hermes_cli/config.py
- Update _get_firecrawl_client() in tools/web_tools.py to accept custom API URL
- Add tests for client initialization with/without URL
- Document new env var in installation and config guides

- Improved documentation to clarify interrupt behaviors and container resource settings, providing users with better guidance on configuration and usage.
- Introduced a new DebugSession class in tools/debug_helpers.py to centralize debug logging functionality, replacing duplicated code across various tool modules.
