hey @moonbox3, is this task planned in the near future or will semantic kernel further focus on the Chat Completions API? :)

Python: Introduce the OpenAI Responses Agent (#11240)
329a35e 
### Motivation and Context

OpenAI recently released their Responses API, which is their newest core
API and an agentic API primitive, combining the simplicity of Chat
Completions with the ability to do more agentic tasks. Azure OpenAI also
recently released the Responses API, with close-to feature parity with
OpenAI's SDK. It gives us enough to introduce an `AzureResponsesAgent`
and an `OpenAIResponsesAgent` to Semantic Kernel.

<!-- Thank you for your contribution to the semantic-kernel repo!

-->

### Description

This PR introduces:
- The `AzureResponsesAgent` and `OpenAIResponsesAgent`
- Allows use of the web search tool with `OpenAI` (`Azure OpenAI`
currently doesn't support this).
- Allows use of the file search tool with both `OpenAI` and `Azure
OpenAI`.
- Provides getting started samples for both agent types.

**TODO:**
- Add unit test coverage for the `ResponsesAgentThreadActions` class.
- Add support for the computer user agent tool.
- Improve typing in the `ResponsesAgentThreadActions` class.
- Closes #11026

<!-- Describe your changes, the overall approach, the underlying design.
