In addition to Claude Sonnet 5.5, this release adds the ability to run `llm anthropic refresh` to refresh the list of Anthropic models directly from their API - which means I don't need to push a new release just to add support for a newly released model.

I also added an `llm anthropic count` command which can use their free token counting API to return a count of tokens that will be used by any prompt, before you send that prompt.
