chore: update AI Gateway docs (#24805)

> AI tools where used when creating this PR


This PR:
* removes references to aibridge repository from coder docs
* updates aibdrige/README.md
* makes it clear aibridge (keeping old name) is a handler not a separate
process
* updates outdated sections about: metrics, recorded interface and
supported paths.

- Base URL configuration (Recommended): Most AI tools allow customizing the base URL for API requests. This is the preferred approach when supported.
- AI Gateway Proxy: For tools that don't support base URL configuration, [AI Gateway Proxy](../ai-gateway-proxy/index.md) can intercept traffic and forward it to AI Gateway.

## Base URLs
Most AI coding tools allow the "base URL" to be customized. In other words, when a request is made to OpenAI's API from your coding tool, the API endpoint such as [`/v1/chat/completions`](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/chat) will be appended to the configured base. Therefore, instead of the default base URL of `https://api.openai.com/v1`, you'll need to set it to `https://coder.example.com/api/v2/aibridge/openai/v1`.

AI coding tools running inside a Coder workspace, such as IDE extensions, can be configured to use AI Gateway.
This section applies when you want template admins to preconfigure tools inside Coder workspaces. For tools running outside of a workspace, see [External and Desktop Clients](#external-and-desktop-clients).
While users can manually configure these tools with a long-lived API key, template admins can provide a more seamless experience by pre-configuring them. Admins can automatically inject the user's session token with `data.coder_workspace_owner.me.session_token` and the AI Gateway base URL into the workspace environment.
In this example, Claude Code respects these environment variables and will route all requests via AI Gateway.

## External and Desktop Clients
You can also configure AI tools running outside of a Coder workspace, such as local IDE extensions or desktop applications, to connect to AI Gateway.
You can also configure AI tools running outside of a Coder workspace, such as local IDE extensions or desktop applications, to connect to AI Gateway. Use the same settings as the in-workspace case, configure the [base URL](#base-urls) and authenticate with a Coder API token.
The configuration is the same: point the tool to the AI Gateway [base URL](#base-urls) and use a Coder API key for authentication.
For base URL setup, the client machine must have network access to the AI Gateway endpoint on your Coder deployment. Clients using [AI Gateway Proxy](../ai-gateway-proxy/index.md) must be able to reach the proxy endpoint and trust its CA certificate.
Users can generate a long-lived API key from the Coder UI or CLI. Follow the instructions at [Sessions and API tokens](../../../admin/users/sessions-tokens.md#generate-a-long-lived-api-token-on-behalf-of-yourself) to create one.

For headless scenarios, first [create a service account](../../../admin/users/headless-auth.md#create-a-service-account), then generate a long-lived token for it.

<summary>Example</summary>
For clients supporting [base URL](#base-urls), eg. [Claude Code](./claude-code.md):
```sh
export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="https://coder.example.com/api/v2/aibridge/anthropic"
export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="<your-coder-api-token>"
```
Replace `coder.example.com` with your Coder deployment URL.
For other clients setup [AI Gateway Proxy](../ai-gateway-proxy/index.md). Configure the proxy endpoint and [CA certificates](../ai-gateway-proxy/setup.md#environment-variables):
```sh
export HTTPS_PROXY="https://coder:<your-coder-api-token>@<proxy-host>:8888"
export SSL_CERT_FILE="/path/to/coder-aibridge-proxy-ca.pem"
```
For proxy setup details, see [AI Gateway Proxy setup](../ai-gateway-proxy/setup.md).
For BYOK and workspace template examples, see full [Claude Code](./claude-code.md) example.

AI Gateway is a smart gateway for AI. It acts as an intermediary between your users' coding agents / IDEs
and providers like OpenAI and Anthropic. By intercepting all the AI traffic between these clients and
the upstream APIs, AI Gateway can record user prompts, token usage, and tool invocations.
AI Gateway supports clients running inside or outside Coder workspaces.

## Implementation Details
`coderd` runs an in-memory instance of `aibridged`, whose logic is mostly contained in https://github.com/coder/aibridge. In future releases we will support running external instances for higher throughput and complete memory isolation from `coderd`.
