* feat(subagents): allow model override per subagent in config.yaml
Wire the existing SubagentConfig.model field to config.yaml so users
can assign different models to different subagent types.

* test(subagents): cover model override in SubagentsAppConfig + registry
Addresses review feedback on #2064:
- registry.py: update stale inline comment — the block now applies
timeout, max_turns AND model overrides, not just timeout.
- test_subagent_timeout_config.py: add coverage for model override
resolution across SubagentOverrideConfig, SubagentsAppConfig
(get_model_for + load), and registry.get_subagent_config:
- per-agent model override is applied to registry-returned config
- omitted `model` keeps the builtin value
- explicit `model: null` in config.yaml is equivalent to omission
- model override on one agent does not affect other agents
- model override preserves all other fields (name, description,
timeout_seconds, max_turns)
- model override does not mutate BUILTIN_SUBAGENTS
Copilot's suggestion (3) "setting model to 'inherit' forces inheritance"
is skipped intentionally: there is no 'inherit' sentinel in the current
implementation — model is `str | None`, and None already means
"inherit from parent". Adding a sentinel would be a new feature, not
test coverage for this PR.
Tests run locally: 51 passed (37 existing + 14 new / expanded).
* test(subagents): reject empty-string model at config load time
Addresses WillemJiang's review comment on #2064 (empty-string edge case):
- subagents_config.py: add `min_length=1` to the `model` field on
SubagentOverrideConfig. `model: ""` in config.yaml would otherwise
bypass the `is not None` check and reach create_chat_model(name="")
as a confusing runtime error. This is symmetric with the existing
`ge=1` guards on timeout_seconds / max_turns, so the validation style
stays consistent across all three override fields.
- test_subagent_timeout_config.py: add test_rejects_empty_model
mirroring the existing test_rejects_zero / test_rejects_negative
cases; update the docstring on test_model_accepts_any_string (now
test_model_accepts_any_non_empty_string) to reflect the new guard.
Not addressing the first comment (validating `model` against the
`models:` section at load time) in this PR. `SubagentsAppConfig` is
scoped to the `subagents:` block and cannot see the sibling `models:`
section, so proper cross-section validation needs a second pass or a
structural change that is out of scope here — and the current behavior
is consistent with how timeout_seconds / max_turns work today. Happy to
track this as a follow-up issue covering cross-section validation
uniformly for all three fields.
Tests run locally: 52 passed in this file; 1847 passed, 18 skipped
across the full backend suite. Ruff check + format clean.
