perf(cost-calc): precompute service-tier cost-key suffixes (#31431)

_get_token_base_cost rebuilt f"_{st.value}" for every ServiceTier while
scanning every model_info key on each request, and _get_cost_per_unit rebuilt
the same f-strings in its fallback loop. The suffixes are constant, so compute
them once at module level (matching the existing _IMAGE_RESPONSE_CALL_TYPES /
_VALID_DATA_RESIDENCIES pattern) and use str.endswith(tuple) for the threshold
check. Behavior is identical; ~3.5 us/call to ~2.2 us/call on the threshold scan.
