Improved readiness probe

[zszabo-rh]

Description

Current readiness probe couldn't detect configuration loading failures due to unresolved environment variables, because the application crashed before the probe endpoint was available. Also there were no validation of template placeholder resolution and no comprehensive application initialization tracking.

Enhanced readiness probe detects unresolved template placeholders using generic pattern matching, monitors initialization steps (config loading, llama client, MCP servers, etc.) while maintaining existing LLM provider health functionality. It also returns detailed reason in readiness probe response for troubleshooting.

Readiness probe response when using bad config: (HTTP 503 Service Unavailable)

{
  "ready": false,
  "reason": "Configuration error: Configuration loading failed: 2 validation errors for Configuration\nauthentication.jwk_config.jwt_configuration.role_rules\n  Input should be a valid list [type=list_type, input_value='${{AUTHN_ROLE_RULES}}', input_type=str]\n    For further information visit https://errors.pydantic.dev/2.11/v/list_type\nauthorization.access_rules\n  Input should be a valid list [type=list_type, input_value='${{AUTHN_ACCESS_RULES}}', input_type=str]\n    For further information visit https://errors.pydantic.dev/2.11/v/list_type",

Same with proper config:

{
  "ready": true,
  "reason": "Application fully initialized and ready",
  "providers": []
}
