### 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!
