Ben Thomas 23db9569ce Renaming and merging hosting extensions. (#5091)
* Rename AddAgentFrameworkHandler to AddFoundryResponses and add MapFoundryResponses

- Rename extension methods: AddAgentFrameworkHandler -> AddFoundryResponses, MapAgentFrameworkHandler -> MapFoundryResponses
- AddFoundryResponses now calls AddResponsesServer() internally
- Add MapFoundryResponses() extension on IEndpointRouteBuilder
- Update sample and tests to use new API names
- Remove redundant AddResponsesServer() and /ready endpoint from sample
