Exa and Parallel now each render as two picker rows in hermes tools —
'Free (keyless)' and 'Paid (API key)'. Selection persists to
web.provider_tier.<name>:
- free: always the anonymous public endpoint, even with a key set
- paid: always the keyed SDK path; missing key errors instead of
silently downgrading to the free tier (is_keyless_available also
returns False so the auto-fallback walk can't route there)
- unset: auto (key present -> paid, else keyless)
Mechanism: get_setup_schema() gains a 'variants' list the picker
flattens into sibling rows sharing one web_backend; selection writes
the tier via both _write_provider_config sites; active-row detection
matches the tier (auto mirrors use_keyless). Routing goes through a
single use_keyless() chokepoint shared by search+extract in both
providers.
Live E2E: tier=free with a fake key present searched keyless OK (a
keyed call would have 401'd); tier=paid without key errored naming
PARALLEL_API_KEY; picker rows verified for both vendors x both tiers.
