- _retry.py: replace `assert last_error is not None` with explicit
`if last_error is None: raise RuntimeError(...)` so the original
rate-limit error is preserved under `python -O`.
- openai.py: drop the `_retry_factory` alias chain; rename the bound
decorator to `_retry_429` to match the pattern in mistral.py.
- mistral.py: comment the imports so future reviewers understand why
`from mistralai.client import …` is the canonical path on 2.x (no
top-level `__init__.py`; no `mistralai.models` subpackage either).
- docs/configuration.md: add `OPENAI_GENERATION_MODEL` and
`OLLAMA_GENERATION_MODEL` rows to the env-var reference table.
- test_mistral.py: add direct unit test for the `_is_rate_limit`
predicate (429 → True, 500 → False, missing-attr → False).
- test_registry.py: stub `mistralai.client.Mistral` in the registry
picker test, mirroring the Ollama sibling, so the test doesn't
depend on the SDK accepting arbitrary keys.
