copilot_chat: Fix Anthropic models not appearing in model picker (#47549)
## Summary

Fixes #47540 - Anthropic Claude models not appearing in GitHub Copilot
Chat model picker.

## Problem

Users reported that Anthropic Claude models (Claude Sonnet 4, Claude
Opus 4, etc.) were not appearing in the model picker when using GitHub
Copilot Chat, even though:
- The GitHub Copilot API returns these models
- The models have `model_picker_enabled: true`
- Users have valid Copilot subscriptions with access to these models

## Root Cause

The issue was in the `ModelSupportedEndpoint` enum deserialization. The
enum only defined two variants:

```rust
pub enum ModelSupportedEndpoint {
    #[serde(rename = "/chat/completions")]
    ChatCompletions,
    #[serde(rename = "/responses")]
    Responses,
}
```

Anthropic Claude models use the `/v1/messages` endpoint, which wasn't
defined. When deserializing the API response, serde failed with:

```
Error("unknown variant `/v1/messages`, expected `/chat/completions` or `/responses`")
```

Because the crate uses resilient deserialization via
`deserialize_models_skip_errors()`, the entire Claude model was silently
skipped rather than causing a hard failure. This meant users saw no
error - the models simply didn't appear.

## Solution

### 1. Added `/v1/messages` endpoint variant

```rust
pub enum ModelSupportedEndpoint {
    #[serde(rename = "/chat/completions")]
    ChatCompletions,
    #[serde(rename = "/responses")]
    Responses,
    #[serde(rename = "/v1/messages")]
    Messages,  // NEW: Anthropic models use this endpoint
    #[serde(other)]
    Unknown,   // NEW: Future-proofing for unknown endpoints
}
```

### 2. Removed incorrect `dedup_by()` call

The previous code deduplicated models by family:

```rust
.dedup_by(|a, b| a.capabilities.family == b.capabilities.family)
```

This incorrectly filtered out model variants that share the same family
(e.g., `claude-sonnet-4` and `claude-sonnet-4-thinking`). Removed this
call to preserve all model variants.

### 3. Removed unused import

Removed `use itertools::Itertools;` which was only used for the
now-removed `dedup_by()`.

## Changes

| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `crates/copilot_chat/src/copilot_chat.rs` | Added `Messages` and
`Unknown` variants to `ModelSupportedEndpoint` enum |
| `crates/copilot_chat/src/copilot_chat.rs` | Removed `.dedup_by()` call
that incorrectly filtered models |
| `crates/copilot_chat/src/copilot_chat.rs` | Removed unused
`itertools::Itertools` import |
| `crates/copilot_chat/src/copilot_chat.rs` | Added 8 new unit tests |

## Test Coverage

Added 8 new unit tests to ensure the fix works and prevent regression:

| Test | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `test_models_with_pending_policy_deserialize` | Verifies models with
non-"enabled" policy states deserialize correctly (they're filtered
later) |
| `test_multiple_anthropic_models_preserved` | Verifies multiple Claude
models are not incorrectly deduplicated |
| `test_models_with_same_family_both_preserved` | Verifies models
sharing the same family (e.g., thinking variants) are both preserved |
| `test_mixed_vendor_models_all_preserved` | Verifies models from
different vendors (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) are all preserved |
| `test_model_with_messages_endpoint_deserializes` | **Critical test**:
Verifies `/v1/messages` endpoint deserializes correctly |
| `test_model_with_unknown_endpoint_deserializes` | Verifies unknown
future endpoints deserialize to `Unknown` variant |
| `test_model_with_multiple_endpoints` | Verifies models with multiple
endpoints deserialize correctly |
| `test_supports_response_method` | Verifies the `supports_response()`
method logic for endpoint routing |

## How to Test Manually

1. Sign in to GitHub Copilot in Zed
2. Open the model picker (Agent panel → model selector dropdown)
3. Verify that Anthropic Claude models appear in the list:
   - Claude Sonnet 4
   - Claude Opus 4
   - Other Claude variants (if enabled in your GitHub Copilot settings)
