fix: remove hardcoded secrets from source code (issue #5124)

- Replace hardcoded 'YOUR_API_KEY' in create_flow.py with empty placeholder
- Replace hardcoded os.environ assignments in multion_tool example with os.environ.get()
- Replace hardcoded default_api_key values in OpenAI-compatible providers with os.getenv() lookups
- Replace hardcoded API keys in docstring examples with os.environ[] references
- Replace hardcoded bearer tokens in invoke_crewai_automation_tool docstrings
- Add test suite for hardcoded secrets detection (test_hardcoded_secrets.py)
- Update existing test assertions for new default_api_key values

"""Tests to detect and prevent hardcoded secrets in the codebase.
These tests scan source files for patterns that look like hardcoded secrets
