Fix OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT token substitution

- Route inline config through load() function to enable {env:} and {file:} token substitution
- Make OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT a dynamic getter for runtime env var access
- Add tests for {env:} and {file:} token substitution in OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT

Fixes #13219
