fix: properly configure CrewAI LLM with MiniMax api_base

- Use CrewAI's LLM class directly with api_base parameter instead of custom subclass
- Remove broken MiniMaxLLM inheritance from LLM
- Update agent creation to use LLM(model, api_key, api_base) pattern

The issue was that inheriting from CrewAI's LLM class caused the api_base
to be set to None. Now we use CrewAI's LLM directly with the correct parameters.

Fixes #43
