Function: classifyByFamily()

classifyByFamily(name): { class: "chat-thinking" | "chat-balanced" | "chat-fast" | "embedding"; rank: number; } | null

Best-effort chat capability band for an endpoint we have no live score for, keyed off provider family and the well-known variant words in the name (opus/sonnet/haiku, pro/mini/nano, flash/flash-lite, Llama parameter sizes, etc). Returns null for names we don’t recognize so unknown custom endpoints are never auto-selected as a default. The accompanying rank orders siblings within a class. Only ever returns a chat band - embedding endpoints are classified by task, not name.
