Pull Request Overview
This PR makes the agent name a required parameter for AzureAIClient by removing the default "UnnamedAgent" fallback value. Users must now explicitly provide an agent name either when initializing AzureAIClient or when creating a ChatAgent.
Key Changes:
- Added validation to enforce agent_name as a required parameter with a clear error message
- Removed redundant agent_name assignments after fetching or creating agents
- Updated sample code to include the required name parameter
- Added test coverage for the missing agent_name validation
