.NET: fix: WorkflowAsAgent Sample (#1787)

* fix: WorkflowAsAgent Sample

* Also makes ChatForwardingExecutor public

* feat: Expand ChatForwardingExecutor handled types

Make ChatForwardingExecutor match the input types of ChatProtocolExecutor.

* fix: Update for the new AgentRunResponseUpdate merge logic

AIAgent always sends out List<ChatMessage> now.
