Mason Daugherty 7a4594b682 fix(anthropic): restore cache_control on non-direct subclasses (#37057)
Closes #37042

---

`AnthropicPromptCachingMiddleware` was unconditionally setting top-level
`cache_control` in `model_settings` for any `ChatAnthropic` subclass.
That field is direct-Anthropic-API only — `ChatAnthropicBedrock` (which
subclasses `ChatAnthropic` and passed the existing `isinstance` gate)
errored with `cache_control: Extra inputs are not permitted`.
Investigating that surfaced a related regression: PR #35967 also deleted
the block-level `cache_control` injection in `_get_request_payload`,
which silently disabled caching entirely for non-direct subclasses
(Bedrock had been falling back to in-block breakpoints). This restores
both paths.

## Changes
- Add `_is_direct_anthropic_llm_type` predicate that allowlists
`_llm_type == "anthropic-chat"`. Both the middleware's
`_supports_automatic_caching` and the new branch in
`ChatAnthropic._get_request_payload` route through it, so any subclass
that overrides `_llm_type` (Bedrock today, future direct-API variants
tomorrow) is treated as non-direct by default. Replaces the prior
substring-matching denylist on `"bedrock"`/`"vertex"`.
- Restore `_collect_code_execution_tool_ids`,
`_is_code_execution_related_block`, and a new
`_apply_cache_control_to_last_eligible_block` helper in `chat_models`.
For non-direct subclasses, `_get_request_payload` now pops
`cache_control` from kwargs and walks messages newest-to-oldest,
attaching the breakpoint to the last block that isn't
`code_execution`-related (Anthropic forbids breakpoints on those).
- Emit `UserWarning` when `cache_control` is requested but every
candidate block is `code_execution`-related — previously a silent drop.
- `AnthropicPromptCachingMiddleware._apply_caching` now sets the
top-level `cache_control` only when
`_supports_automatic_caching(request.model)`. System-message and
tool-definition breakpoints continue to apply for all `ChatAnthropic`
subclasses, since those are accepted by every transport.
- Note: `ChatAnthropicVertex` does not subclass `ChatAnthropic` (it
lives in `langchain-google-vertexai` and ships its own
`_get_request_payload`), so the chat-models changes here only affect
Bedrock. The middleware-side gate covers Vertex implicitly via the
`isinstance(request.model, ChatAnthropic)` check that already excludes
it.
