Yassin Kortam 014cb8fa9d feat: add componentized proxy deployment with gateway, backend, ui, and migrations (#27557)
Split the monolithic LiteLLM proxy into independently scalable Kubernetes components to allow separate horizontal scaling of the LLM data plane and management API surfaces

- Add DatabaseURLSettings pydantic-settings model that assembles DATABASE_URL (and optional DATABASE_URL_READ_REPLICA) from discrete DATABASE_* env vars before Prisma initializes, supporting both IAM token auth (minting short-lived RDS tokens) and password auth; replaces the CLI-only path that componentized entrypoints bypass
- Add gateway component (port 4000) that trims the proxy route table to the LLM data-plane surface (chat, embeddings, completions, audio, realtime, provider passthroughs, health/metrics) via an allowlist applied inside the lifespan context so plugin-registered routes are captured
- Add backend component (port 4001) that exposes the management/admin surface (keys, users, teams, orgs, spend analytics, model management, SSO, audit logs) with a complementary allowlist
- Add ui component — Next.js static export served by nginx (port 3000) with RSC payload routing, asset prefix aliasing, and SPA fallback for dashboard routes
- Add migrations component with dedicated Dockerfile that runs prisma migrate deploy via a Helm pre-install/pre-upgrade Job, eliminating per-pod schema contention on the Prisma advisory lock
- Add Helm chart (helm/litellm) with separate Deployments, Services, HPAs, and ConfigMap for each component; shared _helpers.tpl emits DATABASE_*, IAM_TOKEN_DB_AUTH, REDIS_*, and DISABLE_SCHEMA_UPDATE env vars from chart values; ingress template routes traffic to the correct component by path prefix
- Add comprehensive tests for DatabaseURLSettings covering IAM auth, password auth, read replica fallbacks, operator-pinned URL preservation, and percent-encoding; add coverage test asserting gateway + backend allowlist union equals the full proxy route set
- Add pydantic-settings>=2.14.1 as a proxy extra dependency and update liccheck allowlist
