Split Foundry into stable V1 and preview Hosting package

Extract hosted agent functionality from Microsoft.Agents.AI.Foundry into a
new Microsoft.Agents.AI.Foundry.Hosting preview package. This resolves NU5104
build errors caused by the stable Foundry package depending on prerelease
Azure SDK packages (Azure.AI.AgentServer.Responses, Azure.AI.Projects beta).

Changes:
- Create Microsoft.Agents.AI.Foundry.Hosting with VersionSuffix=preview,
  targeting .NET Core only (net8.0/9.0/10.0)
- Move all Hosting/ source files to the new project
- Move ToolboxRecord/ToolboxVersion overloads to FoundryAIToolExtensions
- Revert Azure.AI.Projects to 2.0.0 in Directory.Packages.props;
  Hosting uses VersionOverride for 2.1.0-beta.1
- Clean V1 Foundry csproj: remove beta deps, ASP.NET Core ref, hosting conditionals
- Update 8 hosted agent sample projects to reference Foundry.Hosting
- Split unit tests: ToolboxRecord/ToolboxVersion tests moved to Hosting/
- Add Foundry.Hosting to solution file
