feat(guardrails): add Akamai Firewall for AI guardrail integration

Add Akamai Firewall for AI as a guardrail provider. The guardrail calls
the Firewall for AI detect endpoint on pre_call, during_call, and
post_call hooks and blocks requests when a triggered rule's action is a
blocking action. Wire the provider into the Admin UI (provider dropdown
logo, Guardrail Garden card and config).

Config is read from api_key, api_base, fai_configuration_id and
user_application_id, with AKAMAI_FIREWALL_* environment variable
fallbacks.
