fix: SerperWebSearch plugin error handling

- Removed load_dotenv() from SerperWebSearch __init__ to avoid test interference
- Added config-based API key support in SerperWebSearch
- Updated error handling test to properly check for missing API key
- Fixed environment variable handling in tests
- Improved test cleanup with try/finally block
- All tests now passing with better error validation
