fix: route v1internal code assist requests to cloudcode-pa.googleapis… (#821)

## Description

This PR fixes routing of Google Cloud Code Assist authentication,
onboarding, and experiment list endpoints.
Specifically, endpoints under `/v1/v1internal:*` (e.g.
`/v1/v1internal:fetchAvailableModels`) are now correctly routed to the
Cloud Code target (`https://cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com`) and
**normalized** to `/v1internal:*` prior to forwarding. This resolves
404/403 errors on the upstream service which does not accept
`/v1/v1internal:*` request paths.

Closes #821

## Type of Change

- [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
- [ ] New feature (non-breaking change that adds functionality)
- [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing
functionality to change)
- [ ] Documentation update
- [ ] Performance improvement
- [ ] Code refactoring (no functional changes)

## Changes Made

- Modified `headroom/providers/proxy_routes.py` to strip the `v1/`
prefix and normalize the path to `/v1internal:*` for Cloud Code routes.
- Modified `tests/test_provider_proxy_routes.py` to add assertions
verifying route and path normalization.

## Testing

- [x] Unit tests pass (`pytest`)
- [x] Linting passes (`ruff check .`)
- [x] Type checking passes (`mypy headroom/providers/proxy_routes.py`)
- [x] New tests added for new functionality
- [x] Manual testing performed

## Real Behavior Proof

- Environment: Linux, Python 3.14.5
- Exact command / steps: `pytest tests/test_provider_proxy_routes.py`
which utilizes `fastapi.testclient.TestClient` to dispatch requests.
- Observed result: Both `/v1internal` and `/v1/v1internal` endpoints are
correctly routed to the Cloud Code target (`https://cloudcode.test`) and
normalize their paths to `/v1internal`, avoiding 404/403 errors on the
upstream service.
- Not tested: Actual production Cloud Code endpoints (simulated via
TestClient/fakes).
