Expose the xAI Imagine image and video surfaces on top of the `xai`
provider, and make the shared OpenAI video-task layer survive the
production configuration they need.
Native video requests live under /v1 (generations, edits, extensions,
with /v1/videos as a creation alias that only selects xAI candidates);
the OpenAI-compatible adapter stays under /openai/v1/videos and maps
`seconds` / `size` onto numeric duration, aspect ratio and resolution.
Clients receive an opaque Aether task ID scoped to the owning user;
polling uses the upstream task ID and the original credential, and
completed downloads fetch the returned media URL without forwarding
provider authorization to the media host.
Three fixes to the shared video layer are required for this to work
outside tests:
- OpenAI/xAI task persistence now supplies a stable 16-character
short_id, which the PostgreSQL schema requires. Existing rows keep
their original value across reconstruction, so no schema change or
historical rewrite is needed.
- Task retrieval and content downloads are admitted by the production
GET execution gate, and reconstructed tasks resolve proxy nodes,
system proxy defaults, tunnel affinity and transport profiles through
the same deployment resolver used for creation. A configured proxy
route no longer silently becomes a direct request after restart.
- When the gateway also serves the frontend, /openai/v1/videos and its
subpaths bypass the static SPA handler. Otherwise a video query
returns HTTP 200 with text/html instead of the task JSON.
