Sort providers by cost, latency, or throughput on AI Gateway

Summary
The AI Gateway now allows users to sort providers by cost, time to first token (TTFT), or throughput (TPS), enabling better control over ranking criteria for model requests. This feature automatically adapts to changes in provider availability and performance metrics without requiring code modifications. The sorting options enhance the ability to optimize for specific needs, such as cost-effectiveness or latency sensitivity.
