Jeroen UbbinkandClaude Fable 5 eaf74edbba fix: bill cached input tokens at their real rates across vendor dialects
Cached prompt tokens were billed at the full input rate whenever a vendor's
usage dialect or cache pricing was unknown, overcharging DeepSeek topups
~5-10x on agentic workloads (hits are 10x cheaper upstream) and silently
mispricing OpenAI cached reads and Anthropic cache writes the same way.

Two root causes, two fixes:

- Usage dialects: DeepSeek reports prompt_cache_hit_tokens /
  prompt_cache_miss_tokens, which billing never parsed. Usage normalization
  now lives in payment/usage.py as a union parser over the known,
  non-colliding dialects (OpenAI prompt_tokens_details, Anthropic additive
  cache fields, DeepSeek hit/miss), producing one canonical NormalizedUsage.
  Providers expose it as an overridable BaseUpstreamProvider.normalize_usage
  hook — the escape hatch for future vendors whose fields genuinely
  conflict — and every settlement call site passes the provider's result
  through, so calculate_cost holds no vendor knowledge of its own.

- Cache rates: the OpenRouter model feed omits input_cache_read/-write for
  most DeepSeek models (and e.g. openai/gpt-4o), so billing fell back to the
  full input rate. Missing rates are now backfilled from litellm's bundled
  cost map before the provider fee is applied; the input-rate fallback
  remains only as the documented last resort.

"""Tests for cache-aware pricing of cached input tokens.
Specifies two things:
1. ``backfill_cache_pricing`` — when the OpenRouter model feed omits cache
rates (it does for most DeepSeek models and e.g. openai/gpt-4o), they are
filled from litellm's bundled cost map instead of silently billing cache
reads at the full input rate. Existing OpenRouter values are never
overwritten, and provider fees apply to backfilled rates like any other.
2. ``calculate_cost`` — cached tokens are billed at the cache rates from the
model's sats_pricing; the full input rate remains only as the documented
last resort when no cache rate could be resolved anywhere.
