chore: bump version to 1.3.1

- Add claude-opus-4-7 capability entry (1M ctx, 128K output, adaptive
  thinking, supports_temperature=False, thinking_display=summarized)
- Suppress temperature param for Opus 4.7 (API returns 400)
- Add thinking display opt-in via new ModelCapabilities.thinking_display
  field - Opus 4.7 omits thinking by default, always send summarized
- Add xhigh effort level to mapping and Opus 4.7 effort_levels
- Add xhigh/max options to skill template dropdowns in admin console
- Align reasoning effort label capitalization across all console dropdowns
- Update example config to reference claude-opus-4-7
- 10 new tests with regression guards for Opus 4.6 backward compat

Verified against live API: streaming and completion calls succeed.

(cherry picked from commit 30c89f46c6)

+## Per-Model Sampling Overrides
+
+The global `model.temperature`, `model.max_tokens`, and `model.reasoning_effort`
+settings serve as cluster-wide defaults. Individual models can override these
+via per-model settings in the `model_definitions` table (admin Models tab).
+

+
+| Priority | Source |
+|----------|--------|
+| 1 (highest) | Per-model override (set in Models tab) |

+| 3 | Registry default (code) |
+
+When a per-model override is `NULL` (empty in the UI), the global default is
+used. Switching models via `/model <alias>` re-resolves sampling parameters
+from the new model's overrides or global defaults.
+
+**Removed settings:** `model.name` and `model.context_window` have been removed
+from ConfigStore. Model names and context windows are now configured per-model
+in the Models tab. A startup warning is logged if these keys appear in
