[codex] Accept string input for Python turns (#23162)

## Summary
- Allow thread.turn and turn.steer, including async variants, to accept
RunInput so plain strings work alongside typed input objects.
- Export RunInput and update the SDK artifact generator so regenerated
turn methods keep the same signature and normalization.
- Update docs, examples, notebook cells, and tests to use string
shorthand for text-only turns while keeping typed inputs for multimodal
input.

## Validation
- uv run --extra dev ruff format .
- uv run --extra dev ruff check --output-format=github .
