## Title

    [trulens / Anthropic] provider fails on every call with anthropic>=1.0: Messages.create() unexpected keyword

## Body

    ## Observed symptom
    [BUG] Anthropic provider fails on every call with anthropic>=1.0: `Messages.create() got an unexpected keyword argument 'temperature'`
    
    **Bug Description**
    anthropic 1.0.0 removed `temperature`, `top_p` and `top_k` from the signature of `Messages.create`. The SDK's v1 migration guide says to pass them through `extra_body` for models that still accept them. `Anthropic._create_chat_completion` (`src/providers/anthropic/trulens/providers/anthropic/provider.py`, lines 222-226) always passes `temperature` as a keyword argument: the caller's value if given, otherwise `0.0` for any non-reasoning model, which includes the default `claude-sonnet-4-6`. The `LLMProvider` feedback methods also pass `temperature` explicitly.
    
    With anthropic>=1.0 this raises `TypeError`. `run_in_pace` retries it four times and then raises `RuntimeError`, 
    
    ## Literal error text
    ```
    Messages.create() got an unexpected keyword

    ## Environment
    GitHub issue truera/trulens #2875
    
    ## Trigger / context
    **Bug Description**
    anthropic 1.0.0 removed `temperature`, `top_p` and `top_k` from the signature of `Messages.create`. The SDK's v1 migration guide says to pass them through `extra_body` for models that still accept them. `Anthropic._create_chat_completion` (`src/providers/anthropic/trulens/providers/anthropic/provider.py`, lines 222-226) always passes `temperature` as a keyword argument: the caller's value if given, otherwise `0.0` for any non-reasoning model, which includes the default `claude-sonnet-4-6`. The `LLMProvider` feedback methods also pass `temperature` explicitly.
    
    With anthropic>=1.0 this raises `TypeError`. `run_in_pace` retries it four times and then raises `RuntimeError`, so every Anthropic-backed feedback call fails. The repo's `poetry.lock` pins anthropic 1.0.0, and `trulens-providers-anthropic` declares `anthropic >=0.39.0`, so this is a supported install. The existing unit tests use a dummy client that accepts any kwargs, so CI does not catch it.
    
    **To Reproduce**
    No API key is needed. A mock transport stands in for the API:
    
    ```python
    import anthropic
    import httpx2  # anthropic>=1.0 is built on httpx2
    from trulens.providers.anthropic import Anthropic
    
    def ha
