fix-model-endpoint-save - Fixed model endpoint save so that it uses the azure_environment variable to determine default management cloud.

[chadpalmer]

This pull request addresses a bug where model endpoint saves could incorrectly persist the auth.management_cloud field as public when the cloud selector was hidden in the Admin UI. The update ensures that the management cloud setting always aligns with the AZURE_ENVIRONMENT variable when the field is not user-editable, preventing token audience and scope mismatches for government environments. The release notes and functional tests have also been updated to reflect and verify this behavior.

Bug Fixes: Model Endpoint Management Cloud Enforcement

• Enforced management_cloud alignment with AZURE_ENVIRONMENT in normalize_model_endpoints, ensuring the field cannot be set to an incorrect default when the admin UI does not expose cloud selection. This includes new helper functions _get_default_management_cloud_from_environment and _is_management_cloud_user_editable in functions_settings.py. [1] [2]
• Added a focused functional test (test_model_endpoint_management_cloud_default.py) to verify that hidden admin UI paths cannot persist incorrect management_cloud defaults.

Documentation

• Updated release notes in release_notes.md to describe the bug fix and the new normalization guard for model endpoint management cloud enforcement.

Versioning

• Bumped application version to 0.241.008 in config.py.
