Pi: session-affinity config breaking change, dynamic tool loading, Fable 5 xhigh/max

Removes the openai-responses sendSessionIdHeader flag — replace sendSessionIdHeader: false with sessionAffinityFormat: "openai-nosession" (breaking). Adds cache-friendly dynamic tool loading, a Ctrl+X copy shortcut, native xhigh/max thinking for Claude Fable 5, and toolChoice support.
