.NET: Annotate all public methods of OpenAIAssistantClientExtensions with Obsolete attribute

[Copilot]

Motivation and Context

The OpenAI Assistants API has been deprecated by OpenAI in favor of the Responses API. All public extension methods in OpenAIAssistantClientExtensions should be marked as obsolete to guide users toward the newer API.

Description

Added [Obsolete("The Assistants API has been deprecated. Please use the Responses API instead.")] to all 12 public methods:

• GetAIAgent (6 overloads)
• GetAIAgentAsync (2 overloads)
• CreateAIAgent (2 overloads)
• CreateAIAgentAsync (2 overloads)

Also added #pragma warning disable CS0618 to the following files to suppress obsolete warnings when using/testing the deprecated methods:

• dotnet/samples/GettingStarted/AgentProviders/Agent_With_OpenAIAssistants/Program.cs - Sample code demonstrating the deprecated API
• dotnet/tests/OpenAIAssistant.IntegrationTests/OpenAIAssistantClientExtensionsTests.cs - Integration tests for the deprecated extension methods
• dotnet/tests/Microsoft.Agents.AI.OpenAI.UnitTests/Extensions/OpenAIAssistantClientExtensionsTests.cs - Unit tests for the deprecated extension methods

[Obsolete("The Assistants API has been deprecated. Please use the Responses API instead.")]
public static ChatClientAgent GetAIAgent(
    this AssistantClient assistantClient,
    ClientResult<Assistant> assistantClientResult,
    ChatOptions? chatOptions = null,
    Func<IChatClient, IChatClient>? clientFactory = null,
    IServiceProvider? services = null)

Contribution Checklist

• The code builds clean without any errors or warnings
• The PR follows the Contribution Guidelines
• All unit tests pass, and I have added new tests where possible
• Is this a breaking change? If yes, add "[BREAKING]" prefix to the title of the PR.

Original prompt

Fixed in d1ac53d. Added #pragma warning disable CS0618 to the sample file (Agent_With_OpenAIAssistants/Program.cs) and the integration test file (OpenAIAssistantClientExtensionsTests.cs) to suppress the obsolete warnings from using the deprecated OpenAI Assistants API methods.
