Perplexity's API is stricter than OpenAI about conversation history:
- Requires strict alternation between user/tool and assistant messages
- Disallows system messages except as the initial message
- Requires the last message to be user or tool
The new adapter transforms messages before sending to satisfy all three
constraints: merging consecutive initial system messages, converting
non-initial system to user, merging consecutive same-role messages, and
removing trailing assistant messages.
Also adds dual-system-instruction warnings to Cerebras, Fireworks,
Mistral, Perplexity, and SambaNova services (matching the existing
BaseOpenAILLMService pattern), and updates the warning text in
BaseOpenAILLMService to be more descriptive.
