Ettore Di Giacinto 3a1507463f fix(backends): don't force-reinstall LOCALAI_EXTERNAL_BACKENDS on boot ...

The startup loop for LOCALAI_EXTERNAL_BACKENDS runs
InstallExternalBackend for each listed backend on every boot, and its
gallery-name path hardcoded force=true — so every start re-downloaded
and re-extracted each listed backend's OCI image even when it was
installed and runnable. Supervising apps that list several backends
paid several full OCI pulls per launch.

Give InstallExternalBackend an explicit force parameter (it only
affects the gallery-name fallback; URI installs always write) and pass:

- false from the boot loop and `local-ai backends install` (idempotent
  ensure — `backends upgrade` is the refresh path),
- op.Force from the local manager's external-URI op,
- the request's force on the worker install path and true on its
  upgrade path (behavior unchanged).
