docs: replace GitHub Copilot recommendations with OpenRouter/minimax-m2.7
GitHub Copilot is still supported but no longer recommended for new users. Updated documentation to point new users to OpenRouter with minimax/minimax-m2.7 as the recommended starting model. Changes: - PROVIDERS.md: Updated Anthropic references, added minimax-m2.7 recommendation - USER_GUIDE.md: Updated Anthropic row in cloud providers table - FEATURES.md: Updated Claude models note to mention OpenRouter only
