Python: Add support for Foundry Toolboxes (#5346)

* Add support for the Foundry Toolbox in MAF

Introduces a Foundry Toolbox integration: FoundryChatClient gains a
get_toolbox() helper plus select_toolbox_tools(), normalize_tools in
the core package flattens tool-collection wrappers (ToolboxVersionObject
and generic iterables, while leaving Pydantic BaseModel instances
alone), and the new agent_framework.foundry namespace re-exports the
toolbox helpers. Ships with unit tests, a sample, and a design doc.

azure-ai-projects is pinned to the public >=2.0.0,<3.0 range and the
lockfile resolves from public PyPI. The toolbox test module skips when
Toolbox* types are unavailable so CI stays green until the public 2.1.0
SDK lands. OMC tooling directories (.omc/, .omx/) are gitignored.

* Update to latest azure ai projects package

* Improve sample

* Rename ADR to 0025

* Update ADR

* Apply suggestion from @alliscode
