Files sent as m.file Matrix messages are now downloaded, MIME-detected,
and forwarded to LLM providers alongside the conversation context,
similar to how m.image is already handled.
- OpenAI provider: sends files inline as base64 data URLs
- Anthropic provider: skips files with a warning (library limitation)
- OpenAI-compat provider: skips files with a warning (library limitation)
Controller routing respects the existing prefix requirement setting.
MIME detection expanded to cover PDF, text, code, and document formats.
Docs updated to reflect file support and known limitations.

This is a huge patch which does some major refactoring like:
- renaming "Image Generation" to "Image Creation" in most places,
to better match its new command (`!bai image create`)
- relocating image creation command (`!bai image` -> `!bai image create`),
so it wouldn't conflict with the new image editing command (`!bai image edit`)
- introducing a new image editing command (`!bai image edit`), which
is meant to work only with the OpenAI provider, but doesn't fully work yet
due to https://github.com/64bit/async-openai/issues/364, though a next patch will fix it
- adding support for reading images off of Matrix conversations and forwarding them to
text conversations. Works for OpenAI, but not for Anthropic yet
(requires custom patches) and not for OpenAI-Compat (no support for
images there)
- relocating some utils around (base64, mime)
