LLM model cooldown bypassed when fallback chain lists aliased model names (Google Gemini 3.5→3.6, 3.7→3.8)

Model aliasing by API providers can silently break fallback chain cooldowns that key on model names, causing chains to retry failing models immediately and defeating transient-failure backoff logic.
