generate_3d: 3D models with fal.ai (image, text, or image steered by text)

- New tool: image-to-3D (project file or an image attached to the chat,
  optional back/left/right views) or text-to-3D; image + prompt refines the
  image with the prompt first (the 3D models take no text with an image).
  Styles textured / geometry / lowpoly, optional PBR, face count. Runs through
  fal.ai's queue API with progress, saves GLB + preview, books the cost
  (published prices, overridable per model). Request bodies for the Hunyuan3D,
  Tripo and Trellis families; defaults [images] model_3d / model_3d_text.
- Chat card: "Open in the 3D view"; media overview: kind "model" (also
  STL/3MF/OBJ written by agents) with previews.

//! 3D models with fal.ai (generate_3d): from an image (plus optional back/left/right
//! views), from a text prompt, or from an image steered by text – the 3D models take no
//! text with an image, so the image is first refined with the prompt (image edit model)
//! and then converted. The result is a GLB file (plus a preview image) in the project.
