Python: A2AAgent defaults name/description from AgentCard (#4661)

Browse Source 
* Python: A2AAgent defaults name/description from AgentCard

When an AgentCard is provided but name/description are not explicitly
set, A2AAgent now falls back to agent_card.name and agent_card.description.
This avoids redundant duplication when constructing A2AAgent instances,
especially in GroupChat orchestrations where name and description are
essential for routing decisions.

Explicit values still take precedence over card values.

Fixes #4630

* Use 'is None' checks instead of truthiness for name/description fallback

Ensures explicitly provided empty strings are not overridden by
agent_card values. Adds test for the empty string edge case.
