## Add Astraflow Provider Support
This PR integrates [Astraflow](https://astraflow.ucloud.cn/) (by UCloud
/ 优刻得) as a new AI model provider in RAGFlow, with support for both
global and China endpoints.
### About Astraflow
Astraflow is an OpenAI-compatible AI model aggregation platform
supporting 200+ models from major providers including DeepSeek, Qwen,
GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral, and more.
| Variant | Factory Name | Endpoint | Env Var |

`ASTRAFLOW_API_KEY` |
| China | `Astraflow-CN` | `https://api.modelverse.cn/v1` |
`ASTRAFLOW_CN_API_KEY` |

### Supported Model Types
- ✅ **Chat / LLM** — DeepSeek-V3/R1, Qwen3, GPT-4o/4.1, Claude 3.5/3.7,
Gemini 2.0/2.5 Flash, Llama 3.3/4, Mistral, and 200+ more
- ✅ **Text Embedding** — text-embedding-3-small/large
- ✅ **Image / Vision (IMAGE2TEXT)** — GPT-4o, GPT-4.1, Claude, Gemini,
Llama-4, etc.
- ✅ **Text Re-Rank**
- ✅ **TTS** — tts-1
- ✅ **Speech-to-Text (SPEECH2TEXT)** — whisper-1
### Implementation Notes
- Uses the `openai/` LiteLLM prefix — consistent with other
OpenAI-compatible aggregation platforms (SILICONFLOW, DeerAPI, CometAPI,
OpenRouter, n1n, Avian, etc.)
- `Astraflow` (global, rank 250) and `Astraflow-CN` (China, rank 249)
are separate factory entries, allowing users to choose the optimal
endpoint based on their region.
- All model classes cleanly subclass existing base classes (`Base`,
`OpenAIEmbed`, `OpenAI_APIRerank`, `GptV4`, `OpenAITTS`, `GPTSeq2txt`)
with no custom logic needed — the provider is fully OpenAI-compatible.

### What problem does this PR solve?
Adds Perplexity contextualized embeddings API as a new model provider,
as requested in #13610.
- `PerplexityEmbed` provider in `rag/llm/embedding_model.py` supporting
both standard (`/v1/embeddings`) and contextualized
(`/v1/contextualizedembeddings`) endpoints
- All 4 Perplexity embedding models registered in
`conf/llm_factories.json`: `pplx-embed-v1-0.6b`, `pplx-embed-v1-4b`,
`pplx-embed-context-v1-0.6b`, `pplx-embed-context-v1-4b`
- Frontend entries (enum, icon mapping, API key URL) in
`web/src/constants/llm.ts`
- Updated `docs/guides/models/supported_models.mdx`
- 22 unit tests in `test/unit_test/rag/llm/test_perplexity_embed.py`
Perplexity's API returns `base64_int8` encoded embeddings (not
OpenAI-compatible), so this uses a custom `requests`-based
implementation. Contextualized vs standard model is auto-detected from
the model name.
Closes#13610
