Subject: [PATCH] feat: Update padding character to Word Joiner (U+2060)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This commit updates the padding character in the `bypass_mode` feature of the `SSL_GeminiTextPrompt` node. The padding now uses the Word Joiner character (U+2060) instead of underscores.

The `_pad_text_with_underscores` method has been modified to implement this change. Text processed by this function will now have each character separated by U+2060, and the entire string will be prepended and appended with U+2060. For example, "hello" becomes "⁠h⁠e⁠l⁠l⁠o⁠".
