Qwen Turbo deprecated

Alibaba's Qwen has marked the qwen-turbo model, released on 2024-11-01, as deprecated with no announced retirement date, according to the provider announcement tracked on models.dev. Qwen Turbo offers a 1,000k-token context window, 16k maximum output, and pricing of $0.05 per 1M input tokens and $0.20 per 1M output tokens. The deprecation flags existing code that calls qwen-turbo or alibaba/qwen-turbo for migration before an eventual shutdown.
