Regression: codex exec with -c flags to configure provider and settings for azure no longer work since 0.11.0

What version of Codex is running?

codex-cli 0.11.0

Which model were you using?

any

What platform is your computer?

any

What steps can reproduce the bug?

running

codex exec -c model=codex-mini -c model_provider=azure -c model_providers.azure.name=azure -c model_providers.azure.wire_api=responses -c model_providers.azure.base_url=https://my-azure-resource.openai.azure.com/openai -c model_providers.azure.env_key=AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY -c model_providers.azure.query_params.api-version=2025-04-01-preview

What is the expected behavior?

as it was in 0.10.0 - it should run the agent and communicate with the azure hosted model

What do you see instead?

i see:
