feat(providers): add Thinking Machines (Inkling) provider (#9731)

* feat(providers): add Thinking Machines (Inkling) provider

Adds Thinking Machines as a BYOK model provider for the Agent block,
served through Tinker's OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Catalog models are
Inkling, Inkling-Small and Inkling 2 Small; a thinkingmachines/tinker://
id samples a user's own Tinker checkpoint.

* feat(providers): use Thinking Machines wordmark as provider icon

Replaces the placeholder "TM" monogram with the Thinking Machines
wordmark on a white background, so it reads in light and dark mode.

 Bring your own Nebius Token Factory API key. On Sim Cloud, a workspace admin can add it under **Workspace settings → BYOK → Nebius**. On self-hosted Sim, provide the key in the Agent block's **API Key** field, using a [secret reference](/platform/credentials).

+Select a model beginning with `thinkingmachines/` to run Inkling, Inkling-Small, or Inkling 2 Small through Tinker serverless inference. To sample a checkpoint you trained on Tinker, enter `thinkingmachines/` followed by its `tinker://` path. Custom checkpoints have no catalog pricing.

On self-hosted Sim, provide the key in the Agent block's **API Key** field, using a [secret reference](/platform/credentials). Tinker's serverless inference is in beta: file attachments are not sent, tools run with automatic tool choice only, and structured outputs are requested through the prompt.

 #### Jev evaluation models
 
 Select `jev-latest` from TypeSafe in the Agent model selector. Hosted Sim supplies a key and bills model usage through the normal credit system; workspace or organization BYOK keys override the hosted key without model charges. Self-hosted users enter their TypeSafe key in the block. Use `jev-1.13.0` to pin a version or `jev-preview` to follow preview releases. These models use **State** and **Questions** in place of conversational messages. State accepts text or a reference to a JSON object or array. Questions is a JSON object keyed by the answer names you want:
