Roger Barreto db6023b0fc Replace Microsoft.Extensions.AI.OpenAI with Microsoft.Agents.AI.OpenAI and remove AsIChatClient()
Swap package references from Microsoft.Extensions.AI.OpenAI to
Microsoft.Agents.AI.OpenAI across all 6 HostedAgents samples. This enables
using the AsAIAgent() extension directly on ChatClient/ResponsesClient
(from OpenAI.Chat/OpenAI.Responses namespaces), removing the intermediate
AsIChatClient() call in 3 samples where it was unnecessary.
