Add the Thinking Effort feature page and the set_thinking_effort tool reference. Wire both into the sidebars, the experimental features list, the chat interface overview, the features index, and the new_task tool docs. Add reasoning effort sections to the OpenAI Compatible, Ollama, and LM Studio provider pages. Include three gallery images under static/img/thinking-effort.
Make the persistence contract explicit: the task-local thinking-effort override is stored with the task (like the task mode and API config name), so reopening the task from history restores it; it is never written to the provider settings, and a new task starts from the profile default. This aligns the docs with the implemented behavior (taskMetadata HistoryItem persistence + Task reopen hydration) and removes the ambiguity that a reviewer could read as a settings-persistence contract.
