/**
* Middleware that provides automatic model fallback on errors.
*
* This middleware attempts to retry failed model calls with alternative models
* in sequence. When a model call fails, it tries the next model in the fallback
* list until either a call succeeds or all models have been exhausted.
*
* @example
* ```ts
* import { createAgent, modelFallbackMiddleware } from "langchain";
*
* // Create middleware with fallback models (not including primary)
* const fallback = modelFallbackMiddleware({
*   "openai:gpt-4o-mini",  // First fallback
*   "anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929",  // Second fallback
* });
*
* const agent = createAgent({
*   model: "openai:gpt-4o",  // Primary model
*   middleware: [fallback],
*   tools: [],
* });
*
* // If gpt-4o fails, automatically tries gpt-4o-mini, then claude
* const result = await agent.invoke({
*   messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello" }]
* });
* ```
*
* @param fallbackModels - The fallback models to try, in order.
* @returns A middleware instance that handles model failures with fallbacks
