New CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_MODE_MODEL environment variable for client-side classifier configuration

code.claude.comagent

Added environment variable to select which model the client-side auto mode classifier uses, independent of the server-side classifier. This provides developers with granular control over automatic tool invocation behavior.
