What's Wrong?

claude code sends the anthropic-beta header with beta values to vertex's count-tokens "model" which fails with an invalid request error

This was sorta fixed but is now broken again as the web-search-2025-03-05 value started being added in 2.0.31

This never works with sonnet[1m]

What Should Happen?

when doing a count-tokens call, don't send anthropic-beta header at all as it doesn't seem to like any values there

Steps to Reproduce
