fix: remove_disabled_providers filtering models with None fields (#4132)

Fixed bug where models with No provider_model_id were incorrectly
filtered from the startup config display. The function was checking
multiple fields when it should only filter items with explicitly
disabled provider_id.

Changes:
o Modified remove_disabled_providers to only check provider_id field o
Changed condition from checking multiple fields with None to only
  checking provider_id for "__disabled__", None or empty string
o Added comprehensive unit tests

Closes: #4131
