On provider switches mid-session (e.g. MiniMax -> DeepSeek), the source
assistant turn carries a 'reasoning' field written by the prior provider
but no 'reasoning_content' key. _copy_reasoning_content_for_api would
promote that foreign 'reasoning' to 'reasoning_content' on the outbound
DeepSeek request, leaking a cross-provider chain of thought and in
practice causing HTTP 400.
DeepSeek's own _build_assistant_message always pins reasoning_content=''
at creation time for tool-call turns, so the shape (reasoning set,
reasoning_content absent, tool_calls present) is unreachable from
same-provider DeepSeek history — it can only come from a prior provider.
Pad with '' in that case instead of promoting.
Healthy same-provider 'reasoning' promotion (no tool_calls, or on
providers that do not require the empty-string pin) is unchanged.
