fix: improve GLM model detection patterns for LM Studio and OpenAI-compatible endpoints

Addresses Issue #11071 where GLM4.5 models via LM Studio get stuck
repeating file reads due to undetected model names.

Changes:
- Add isGlmModel() utility that uses a flexible regex pattern to detect
  GLM models anywhere in the model ID (case-insensitive)
- Handle model name formats like:
  - mlx-community/GLM-4.5-4bit
  - GLM-4.5-UD-Q8_K_XL-00001-of-00008.gguf
  - glm-4.5 (standard format)
  - chatglm variants
- Update LmStudioHandler to apply GLM-specific optimizations when detected
- Update BaseOpenAiCompatibleProvider similarly
- Add comprehensive tests for GLM model detection

When GLM model is detected:
- mergeToolResultText: true (prevents conversation flow disruption)
- parallel_tool_calls: false (GLM may not support this parameter)
