### What happened?

After upgrading LiteLLM to version 1.82.3, editing any API key configuration (even for models without guardrails) triggers a false "Feature Unavailable" error claiming the guardrails feature requires a LiteLLM Enterprise license. The error persists despite having no guardrails configured in the application or environment.

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Install LiteLLM 1.82.3. 2. Configure a model (e.g., litellm.completion(model="gpt-4", api_key="xxx")) without guardrails. 3. Attempt to edit the API key via UI or configuration method. 4. Observe the error: `{'error': 'This feature is only available for LiteLLM Enterprise users: guardrails...'}`
