## Title

    [instructor] Bedrock: Claude Opus 5.5 returns 400 in from_bedrock TOOLS mode because toolChoice is always forced

## Body

    ## Observed symptom
    Bedrock: Claude Opus 5.5 returns 400 in from_bedrock TOOLS mode because toolChoice is always forced
    
    Thanks for #2566 and the other recent Bedrock work that made the handlers keep caller-owned nested config. This looks like one more spot of the same kind, and the handler tests made it quick to trace.
