fix(max-tokens): anthropic models streaming vs non-streaming

+### Max Output Tokens
+
+Controls the maximum length of the model's response. For Anthropic models, Sim uses reliable defaults: streaming executions use the model's full capacity (e.g. 64,000 tokens for Claude 4.5), while non-streaming executions default to 8,192 to avoid timeout issues. For long-form content generation via API, explicitly set a higher value.
