Python: restructure: Python samples into progressive 01-05 layout (#3862)

* restructure: Python samples into progressive 01-05 layout

- 01-get-started/: 6 numbered steps (hello agent → hosting)
- 02-agents/: all agent concept samples (tools, middleware, providers, etc.)
- 03-workflows/: ALL existing workflow samples preserved as-is
- 04-hosting/: azure-functions, durabletask, a2a
- 05-end-to-end/: demos, evaluation, hosted agents
- Old files moved to _to_delete/ for review
- Added AGENTS.md with structure documentation
- autogen-migration/ and semantic-kernel-migration/ preserved at root

* fix: switch to AzureOpenAI Foundry, fix CI failures

- Switch all 01-get-started samples to AzureOpenAIResponsesClient with
  Azure AI Foundry project endpoint (AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT +
  AZURE_OPENAI_RESPONSES_DEPLOYMENT_NAME + AzureCliCredential)
- Add _to_delete/ and 05-end-to-end/ to pyrightconfig.samples.json excludes
- Fix test paths in packages/ that referenced old getting_started/ dirs:
  durabletask conftest + streaming test, azurefunctions conftest,
  devui conftest + capture_messages + openai_sdk_integration
- Fix workflow_as_agent_human_in_the_loop.py import (sibling import)
- Update hosting READMEs and tool comment paths
- Replace root README.md with new structure overview
- Update AGENTS.md to document Azure OpenAI Foundry as default provider

* cleanup: remove _to_delete folder, copy resource files to active dirs

All files in _to_delete/ were either:
- Exact duplicates of files in the new structure (240 files)
- Same file with only comment path updates (100 files)
- One import-fix diff (workflow_as_agent_human_in_the_loop.py)
- One superseded minimal_sample.py

Resource files (sample.pdf, countries.json, employees.pdf, weather.json)
copied to 02-agents/sample_assets/ and 02-agents/resources/ since active
samples reference them.

* fix: address PR review comments, centralize resources, remove root duplicates

- Fix type annotation in 04_memory.py (string union -> proper types)
- Fix old sample paths in observability files
- Fix grammar/spelling in observability samples
- Move sample_assets/ and resources/ to shared/ folder
- Remove 8 duplicate observability files from 02-agents root
- Update resource path references in multimodal_input and provider samples

* fix: update broken links from old getting_started paths to new structure

- Update relative paths in READMEs: getting_started/ → 01-get-started/,
  02-agents/, 03-workflows/, 04-hosting/, 05-end-to-end/
- Fix absolute GitHub URLs in package READMEs
- Fix broken link in ollama package README

* fix: convert absolute GitHub URLs to relative paths for link checker

Absolute URLs to python/samples/ on main branch 404 until PR merges.
Converted to relative paths that linkspector can verify locally.

* fix: update link for handoff sample moved to orchestrations/

* fix: update chatkit-integration README path from demos/ to 05-end-to-end/

* fix: update broken links in orchestrations README to match flat directory structure

Agent-Level and Run-Level MiddlewareTypes Example
This sample demonstrates the difference between agent-level and run-level middleware:
- Agent-level middleware: Applied to ALL runs of the agent (persistent across runs)
- Run-level middleware: Applied to specific runs only (isolated per run)
The example shows:
1. Agent-level security middleware that validates all requests
2. Agent-level performance monitoring across all runs
3. Run-level context middleware for specific use cases (high priority, debugging)
4. Run-level caching middleware for expensive operations
Agent Middleware Execution Order:
When both agent-level and run-level *agent* middleware are configured, they execute
in this order:
1. Agent-level middleware (outermost) - executes first, in the order they were registered
2. Run-level middleware (innermost) - executes next, in the order they were passed to run()
3. Agent execution - the actual agent logic runs last
For example, with agent middleware [A1, A2] and run middleware [R1, R2]:
Request -> A1 -> A2 -> R1 -> R2 -> Agent -> R2 -> R1 -> A2 -> A1 -> Response
This means:
- Agent middleware wraps ALL run middleware and the agent
- Run middleware wraps only the agent for that specific run
- Each middleware can modify the context before AND after calling next()
Note: Function and chat middleware (e.g., ``function_logging_middleware``) execute
during tool invocation *inside* the agent execution, not in the outer agent-middleware
chain shown above. They follow the same ordering principle: agent-level function/chat
middleware runs before run-level function/chat middleware.

This sample demonstrates how to use chat middleware to observe and override
inputs sent to AI models. Chat middleware intercepts chat requests before they reach
the underlying AI service, allowing you to:
1. Observe and log input messages
2. Modify input messages before sending to AI
3. Override the entire response
The example covers:
- Class-based chat middleware inheriting from ChatMiddleware
- Function-based chat middleware with @chat_middleware decorator
- MiddlewareTypes registration at agent level (applies to all runs)
- MiddlewareTypes registration at run level (applies to specific run only)

Decorator MiddlewareTypes Example
This sample demonstrates how to use @agent_middleware and @function_middleware decorators
to explicitly mark middleware functions without requiring type annotations.
The framework supports the following middleware detection scenarios:
1. Both decorator and parameter type specified:
- Validates that they match (e.g., @agent_middleware with AgentContext)
- Throws exception if they don't match for safety
2. Only decorator specified:
- Relies on decorator to determine middleware type
- No type annotations needed - framework handles context types automatically
3. Only parameter type specified:
- Uses type annotations (AgentContext, FunctionInvocationContext) for detection
4. Neither decorator nor parameter type specified:
- Throws exception requiring either decorator or type annotation
- Prevents ambiguous middleware that can't be properly classified
Key benefits of decorator approach:
- No type annotations needed (simpler syntax)
- Explicit middleware type declaration
- Clear intent in code
- Prevents type mismatches

Exception Handling with MiddlewareTypes
This sample demonstrates how to use middleware for centralized exception handling in function calls.
The example shows:
- How to catch exceptions thrown by functions and provide graceful error responses
- Overriding function results when errors occur to provide user-friendly messages
- Using middleware to implement retry logic, fallback mechanisms, or error reporting
The middleware catches TimeoutError from an unstable data service and replaces it with
a helpful message for the user, preventing raw exceptions from reaching the end user.

Function-based MiddlewareTypes Example
This sample demonstrates how to implement middleware using simple async functions instead of classes.
The example includes:
- Security middleware that validates agent requests for sensitive information
- Logging middleware that tracks function execution timing and parameters
- Performance monitoring to measure execution duration
Function-based middleware is ideal for simple, stateless operations and provides a more
lightweight approach compared to class-based middleware. Both agent and function middleware
can be implemented as async functions that accept context and call_next parameters.

Result Override with MiddlewareTypes (Regular and Streaming)
This sample demonstrates how to use middleware to intercept and modify function results
after execution, supporting both regular and streaming agent responses. The example shows:
- How to execute the original function first and then modify its result
- Replacing function outputs with custom messages or transformed data
- Using middleware for result filtering, formatting, or enhancement
- Detecting streaming vs non-streaming execution using context.stream
- Overriding streaming results with custom async generators
The weather override middleware lets the original weather function execute normally,
then replaces its result with a custom "perfect weather" message. For streaming responses,
it creates a custom async generator that yields the override message in chunks.

Runtime Context Delegation Patterns
This sample demonstrates different patterns for passing runtime context (API tokens,
session data, etc.) to tools and sub-agents.
Patterns Demonstrated:
1. **Pattern 1: Single Agent with MiddlewareTypes & Closure** (Lines 130-180)
- Best for: Single agent with multiple tools
- How: MiddlewareTypes stores kwargs in container, tools access via closure
- Pros: Simple, explicit state management
- Cons: Requires container instance per agent
2. **Pattern 2: Hierarchical Agents with kwargs Propagation** (Lines 190-240)
- Best for: Parent-child agent delegation with as_tool()
- How: kwargs automatically propagate through as_tool() wrapper
- Pros: Automatic, works with nested delegation, clean separation
- Cons: None - this is the recommended pattern for hierarchical agents
3. **Pattern 3: Mixed - Hierarchical with MiddlewareTypes** (Lines 250-300)
- Best for: Complex scenarios needing both delegation and state management
- How: Combines automatic kwargs propagation with middleware processing
- Pros: Maximum flexibility, can transform/validate context at each level
- Cons: More complex setup
Key Concepts:
- Runtime Context: Session-specific data like API tokens, user IDs, tenant info
- MiddlewareTypes: Intercepts function calls to access/modify kwargs
- Closure: Functions capturing variables from outer scope
- kwargs Propagation: Automatic forwarding of runtime context through delegation chains

Shared State Function-based MiddlewareTypes Example
This sample demonstrates how to implement function-based middleware within a class to share state.
The example includes:
- A MiddlewareContainer class with two simple function middleware methods
- First middleware: Counts function calls and stores the count in shared state
- Second middleware: Uses the shared count to add call numbers to function results
This approach shows how middleware can work together by sharing state within the same class instance.

Thread Behavior MiddlewareTypes Example
This sample demonstrates how middleware can access and track thread state across multiple agent runs.
The example shows:
- How AgentContext.thread property behaves across multiple runs
- How middleware can access conversation history through the thread
- The timing of when thread messages are populated (before vs after call_next() call)
- How to track thread state changes across runs
Key behaviors demonstrated:
1. First run: context.messages is populated, context.thread is initially empty (before call_next())
2. After call_next(): thread contains input message + response from agent
3. Second run: context.messages contains only current input, thread contains previous history
4. After call_next(): thread contains full conversation history (all previous + current messages)
