When RAG_OPENAI_API_KEY and RAG_OPENAI_API_BASE_URL are not explicitly set, they now fall back to OPENAI_API_KEY and OPENAI_API_BASE_URL respectively. This ensures users who already configure OPENAI_API_* do not need to duplicate their config for RAG.

### 📄 Description
Fixes #22084
When `RAG_OPENAI_API_KEY` and `RAG_OPENAI_API_BASE_URL` are not explicitly set, they now fall back to `OPENAI_API_KEY` and `OPENAI_API_BASE_URL` respectively. This ensures users who already configure `OPENAI_API_*` do not need to duplicate their config for RAG.
