docs: add Cohere Parse v5 OCR support for cohere and azure_ai

[devin-ai-integration]

Summary

Draft until litellm v1.101.0 is GA. Cohere Parse support is currently only in v1.101.0-rc.1 and v1.102.0-dev.1; the latest stable tag v1.100.0 does not contain it

Cohere Parse v5 shipped in litellm (BerriAI/litellm commit 8426235290) for both cohere/parse-v5.0 and azure_ai/Cohere-parse-v5, but the docs never mentioned it. docs/ocr.md still listed only mistral, azure_ai, vertex_ai and there was no Cohere Parse page, so a customer asked whether it was supported at all

This adds a Parse (OCR) section to providers/cohere.md, a Cohere Parse section to providers/azure_ocr.md (retitled from "Azure AI OCR (Mistral)" since it now covers two backends), and lists cohere in the /ocr provider tables

Behavior documented from the litellm source rather than the Cohere blog: image-only input (image_url URL or data URI, no PDF), output_format markdown/blocks, req_format=native, $0.0015/page cost, and base64 inlining on Azure. The azure_ai section also calls out that routing is by substring match on litellm_params.model (cohere and parse both required), since a differently named Foundry deployment silently falls through to the Mistral OCR route

npm run build passes
