## Title

    Proposed fix: [langchain-aws] Bedrock API key (api_key / bearer token) silently wins over AWS credentials — 'Both api_key and AWS credentials were provided. Using api_key for authentication' — and fai

## Body

    Recommended action: Pass only one auth mode; pin botocore/langchain-aws together if you rely on api_key; unset AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK when you intend profile/role auth.
    
    Option: Use a single auth mode and pin versions [evidence: official_recommended_action]
    Steps:
    1. Remove api_key when using profiles/roles.
    2. Pin botocore to a version tested with your langchain-aws when using api_key.
    Expected: Predictable identity; no RuntimeError.
