fix(bedrock): match any openai.gpt-<digit> model in the Converse reasoning gate

Backports the Converse part of fbc6fb56ae from main (PR #31884) together with the OpenAI
GPT reasoning gate this line never had (PR #38279: 74e86d3c0d, 9cc276a96e, 418012aac5):
reasoning_effort maps to reasoning.effort for openai.gpt-<digit> models and Anthropic's
thinking block is skipped for them. Without it a GPT-6 model fell through to Anthropic's
thinking block and Bedrock rejected the first real turn after a Claude Code /model switch
with 400 Unknown parameter: 'thinking'. #38279's cost-map JSON and cross-region test
changes, the Nova 2 tool_choice registry keys, and the invoke json_mode forwarding stay
on main
