bug: non-openai mode - fix for gemini content: null, fix 429 to throw before stream (#563)

Gemini's API is finicky, it 400's without an error when you pass
content: null
Also fixed the rate limiting issues by throwing outside of the iterator.
I think there's a separate issue with the second isRateLimit check in
agent-loop - turnInput is cleared by that time, so it retries without
the last message.
