feat(ui): add searchable base model dropdown with filename inference in model modal

Replace native <select> with a searchable dropdown that:
- Filters options as the user types
- Shows filename-inferred suggestions at the top in a "Suggested" section
- Supports keyboard navigation (ArrowUp/Down/Enter/Escape)
- Allows typing custom values not in the list
- Removes dead .base-model-selector CSS

Adds 3 new i18n keys (baseModelSearchPlaceholder, baseModelSuggested,
baseModelNoMatch) with translations for all 9 locales.
