feat: model compatibility warning on HF lookup

- GET /api/models/lookup now returns compatible: bool and warning: str|null
- compatible=false + warning when pipeline_tag is absent (no task tag on HF)
  or present but not in the supported adapter map
- Warning message names the unsupported pipeline_tag and lists supported types
- ModelsView: yellow compat-warning banner below preview description;
  Add button relabels to "Add anyway" with muted styling when incompatible
- test_models: accept 405 for path-traversal DELETE tests (StaticFiles mount
  returns 405 for non-GET methods when web/dist exists)
