fix: remove circular self-dependency, default to anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6 with thinking off

- Remove gsd-pi from its own dependencies (circular dep caused ENOTEMPTY install failures)
- Auto-select anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6 as default model for new installs
- Reset to valid model if configured model no longer exists in registry
- Default thinking level to off
