Pixel enhancements - Course LLM Key - #1383

📝 WalkthroughSummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe PR adds encrypted, course-scoped OpenAI configuration and an optional Pixelbot model. Metadata uploads and RAG chat requests use these values, handle configuration failures, and retain fallback behavior where applicable. ChangesCourse-scoped LLM integration
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change routes chatbot requests through a course-specific model, but a blank stored model can be sent to the provider instead of using the default, causing affected requests to fail with an opaque provider error. This is a bounded correctness risk that should be addressed or explicitly accepted before merge. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 3 | ❌ 2❌ Failed checks (1 warning, 1 inconclusive)

Treat a blank pixelbot_model as unset.
|| only replaces nil or false. If an administrator saves pixelbot_model as "", the controller sends model: "" to OpenAI, and the request fails with an opaque provider error. This controller already guards "" for the prompt columns at lines 69-70, so blank text values are a realistic stored state.

Assert the course-scoped model and configuration.
The success-path mock accepts _model and _config without checking their values. The test can pass if the controller ignores course.pixelbot_model or drops the result from CourseLlm.config/1. Set a non-default pixelbot_model and match both arguments in the callback.

Verify the course-scoped configuration value in both mock suites.
Both suites accept the new configuration argument but ignore it. Add a pattern match or assertion for %OpenAI.Config{api_key: "sk-course-key"} so regressions that pass the wrong configuration fail in tests.
