kshitijk4poor f86f92e3a2 refactor(web): per-capability backend selection for search/extract split
Introduce the foundation for independently selecting web search and
extract backends — enabling future combinations like SearXNG for
search + Firecrawl for extract.

Architecture:
- tools/web_providers/base.py: WebSearchProvider and WebExtractProvider
  ABCs with normalized result contracts (mirrors CloudBrowserProvider)
- tools/web_tools.py: _get_search_backend() and _get_extract_backend()
  read per-capability config keys, fall through to shared web.backend
- hermes_cli/config.py: web.search_backend and web.extract_backend in
  DEFAULT_CONFIG (empty = inherit from web.backend)

Behavioral change:
- web_search_tool() now dispatches via _get_search_backend()
- web_extract_tool() now dispatches via _get_extract_backend()
- When per-capability keys are empty (default), behavior is identical
  to before — _get_search_backend() falls through to _get_backend()

This is purely structural — no new backends are added. SearXNG and
other search-only/extract-only providers can now be added as simple
drop-in modules in follow-up PRs.

12 new tests, 49 existing tests pass with zero regressions.

"""Tests for the web tools provider architecture.
Covers:
- WebSearchProvider / WebExtractProvider ABC enforcement
- Per-capability backend selection (_get_search_backend, _get_extract_backend)
- Backward compatibility (web.backend still works as shared fallback)
- Config keys merge correctly via DEFAULT_CONFIG
