Evan Mattson 429dd1c4c0 Python: support (Azure) OpenAI realtime audio models (#13291)
### Motivation and Context

As of 2/27/2026, revived the PR, and the latest code is working for both
Azure OpenAI realtime models and OpenAI realtime models.

SK has support for realtime-preview models; however, since they've gone
to GA we have not added support for the latest library abstractions.
This PR brings in the changes to support running models like
`gpt-realtime-1.5`, `gpt-realtime`, `gpt-realtime-mini` or `gpt-audio`.

### Description

- Closes #13267
- Code now relies on `openai` >= 2.0
- Considered a breaking change due some new config added to the
execution settings.
