feat: add model picker to Analysis and Batch pages with full backend wiring

Thread the optional model parameter through the entire analysis pipeline:
- analyzer.py: analyze_company, _analyze_company_safe, analyze_companies,
  and analyze_single_patent now accept and forward model override
- api.py: single company endpoint accepts model query param; batch and
  async batch endpoints pass request.model through to the analyzer
- client.ts: analyzeCompany, analyzeBatch, analyzeBatchAsync accept model;
  add listModels() to fetch available models from GET /models
- Analysis.tsx: add model selector dropdown that loads from /models API
- Batch.tsx: add model selector alongside the workers slider

Users can now pick a specific LLM (GPT-4o, Claude 3.5, Gemini, etc.)
per analysis request, or leave it on the server default.
