fix: extend case normalization to ALL guardrail types (not just tool_permission)

This extends the previous fix to handle capitalized fields across ALL guardrail types,
including Presidio, Azure, Lakera, Bedrock, etc.

Discovery:
- Database investigation revealed the issue affects multiple guardrail types
- Found 4 affected guardrails in staging: 3 Presidio + 1 Azure
- All had default_action: 'Deny' causing the same validation failures
- The initial fix only covered ToolPermissionGuardrailConfigModel

Root Cause (Deeper):
- LitellmParams inherits from 13+ different guardrail config models
- Models use ConfigDict(extra="allow") allowing any field to be set
- Users can set default_action/on_disallowed_action on ANY guardrail type
- Only ToolPermissionGuardrailConfigModel was validating these fields

Solution:
- Added field validators to LitellmParams class (parent of all guardrails)
- Validators run for ALL guardrail types: Presidio, Azure, Bedrock, Lakera, etc.
- Added comprehensive tests covering multiple guardrail types

Changes:
- litellm/types/guardrails.py:
  * Added @field_validator for default_action in LitellmParams
  * Added @field_validator for on_disallowed_action in LitellmParams
  * Added normalization in LitellmParams.__init__ as backup
  * Imported field_validator from pydantic

- tests/test_litellm/types/test_guardrails_case_normalization.py:
  * New test file with 7 tests covering multiple guardrail types
  * Tests verify Presidio, Azure, Tool Permission, Lakera, Bedrock
  * All tests passing

Impact:
- Previous fix: Only tool_permission guardrails protected
- This fix: ALL guardrail types now protected (13+ types)
- Handles both new writes and existing database records
- Tested against actual database with Presidio/Azure guardrails

Testing:
- 7 new cross-guardrail tests (all passing)
- 27 existing tool_permission tests (all passing)
- Verified fix works for real database records
