alt-glitch 3183b2e28c fix(video_gen): veo3.1 duration format and 4k resolution
FAL veo3.1 API expects duration as "4s"/"6s"/"8s" (with unit suffix),
not bare "4"/"6"/"8" like other families. Add per-family duration_suffix
field and apply it in _build_payload. Also add "4k" to veo3.1 resolutions
per FAL API docs.

Note: the managed gateway currently rejects the "4s" format (expects
integer duration). Gateway-side fix needed for veo3.1 to work through
the Nous subscription path.

"""FAL.ai video generation backend.
User-facing surface: pick a **model family** (e.g. "Pixverse v6",
"Veo 3.1", "Seedance 2.0", "Kling v3 4K", "LTX 2.3", "Happy Horse").
The plugin auto-routes to the family's text-to-video endpoint when
called without ``image_url``, and to its image-to-video endpoint when
``image_url`` is provided. The agent never sees the routing — it just
calls ``video_generate(prompt=..., image_url=...)``.
Model families (each with t2v + i2v endpoints):
Cheap tier:
ltx-2.3 fal-ai/ltx-2.3-22b/text-to-video / fal-ai/ltx-2.3-22b/image-to-video
pixverse-v6 fal-ai/pixverse/v6/text-to-video / fal-ai/pixverse/v6/image-to-video
Premium tier:
veo3.1 fal-ai/veo3.1 / fal-ai/veo3.1/image-to-video
seedance-2.0 bytedance/seedance-2.0/text-to-video / bytedance/seedance-2.0/image-to-video
kling-v3-4k fal-ai/kling-video/v3/4k/text-to-video / fal-ai/kling-video/v3/4k/image-to-video
happy-horse alibaba/happy-horse/text-to-video / alibaba/happy-horse/image-to-video
Selection precedence for the active family:
1. ``model=`` arg from the tool call
2. ``FAL_VIDEO_MODEL`` env var
3. ``video_gen.fal.model`` in ``config.yaml``
4. ``video_gen.model`` in ``config.yaml`` (when it's one of our family IDs)
5. ``DEFAULT_MODEL``
Authentication via ``FAL_KEY`` or the managed Nous gateway. Output is an
HTTPS URL from FAL's CDN; the gateway downloads and delivers it.
