feat: OpenAI-Compatible models, completions, chat/completions (#1894)
# What does this PR do?

This stubs in some OpenAI server-side compatibility with three new
endpoints:

/v1/openai/v1/models
/v1/openai/v1/completions
/v1/openai/v1/chat/completions

This gives common inference apps using OpenAI clients the ability to
talk to Llama Stack using an endpoint like
http://localhost:8321/v1/openai/v1 .

The two "v1" instances in there isn't awesome, but the thinking is that
Llama Stack's API is v1 and then our OpenAI compatibility layer is
compatible with OpenAI V1. And, some OpenAI clients implicitly assume
the URL ends with "v1", so this gives maximum compatibility.

The openai models endpoint is implemented in the routing layer, and just
returns all the models Llama Stack knows about.

The following providers should be working with the new OpenAI
completions and chat/completions API:
* remote::anthropic (untested)
* remote::cerebras-openai-compat (untested)
* remote::fireworks (tested)
* remote::fireworks-openai-compat (untested)
* remote::gemini (untested)
* remote::groq-openai-compat (untested)
* remote::nvidia (tested)
* remote::ollama (tested)
* remote::openai (untested)
* remote::passthrough (untested)
* remote::sambanova-openai-compat (untested)
* remote::together (tested)
* remote::together-openai-compat (untested)
* remote::vllm (tested)

The goal to support this for every inference provider - proxying
directly to the provider's OpenAI endpoint for OpenAI-compatible
providers. For providers that don't have an OpenAI-compatible API, we'll
add a mixin to translate incoming OpenAI requests to Llama Stack
inference requests and translate the Llama Stack inference responses to
OpenAI responses.

This is related to #1817 but is a bit larger in scope than just chat
completions, as I have real use-cases that need the older completions
API as well.

## Test Plan

### vLLM

```
VLLM_URL="http://localhost:8000/v1" INFERENCE_MODEL="meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct" llama stack build --template remote-vllm --image-type venv --run

LLAMA_STACK_CONFIG=http://localhost:8321 INFERENCE_MODEL="meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct" python -m pytest -v tests/integration/inference/test_openai_completion.py --text-model "meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct"
```

### ollama
```
INFERENCE_MODEL="llama3.2:3b-instruct-q8_0" llama stack build --template ollama --image-type venv --run

LLAMA_STACK_CONFIG=http://localhost:8321 INFERENCE_MODEL="llama3.2:3b-instruct-q8_0" python -m pytest -v tests/integration/inference/test_openai_completion.py --text-model "llama3.2:3b-instruct-q8_0"
```



## Documentation

Run a Llama Stack distribution that uses one of the providers mentioned
in the list above. Then, use your favorite OpenAI client to send
completion or chat completion requests with the base_url set to
http://localhost:8321/v1/openai/v1 . Replace "localhost:8321" with the
host and port of your Llama Stack server, if different.
