fix(system-prompt): remove "portuguese" as example

This confuses dumber models, that might respond in Portuguese even when the user prompt was in English. This is more common for small models. We already made this fix on the title generation prompt, we're now just porting to the coder prompt. * Closes #2627 * Follow-up #2497
