core: strip image detail from Responses Lite requests (#27246)

## Summary

- Strip image `detail` fields from every Responses Lite request.
- Apply stripping to message images and function/custom tool-output
images.
- Transform only the formatted request copy without mutating stored
history.
- Preserve image URLs byte-for-byte, including HTTP(S) URLs, without
downloading, validating, or resizing them.
- Preserve all image `detail` fields for non-Responses-Lite models.

## Motivation

Responses Lite does not support image `detail` tags, so Codex must omit
them whenever `model_info.use_responses_lite` is enabled. This transport
requirement is independent of the `resize_all_images` feature.

Stored history retains the original detail values. This keeps
request-specific formatting isolated from conversation state and
preserves the information for local image preparation and
non-Responses-Lite requests.
