Bug: edrockResponse.is_json always returns True regardless of Content-Type #7692

@T90REAL

Description

@T90REAL

Expected Behaviour

resp_text.is_json() returns False because the content type is not JSON.

Current Behaviour

Both calls return True; is_json ignores content_type.

Code snippet

from aws_lambda_powertools.event_handler.api_gateway import BedrockResponse

resp_json = BedrockResponse(body={"ok": True}, content_type="application/json")
resp_text = BedrockResponse(body="plain", content_type="text/plain")

print(resp_json.is_json())
print(resp_text.is_json())
True
True

Possible Solution

Response.is_json() in the same file correctly looks at the Content-Type. BedrockResponse.is_json() should follow the same logic (checking for application/json or variants) instead of returning True unconditionally.

Steps to Reproduce

Run the repro script.
