[.Net][Feature Request]: Support custom HttpClient

[xuzeyu91]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I hope to customize HttpClient similar to Semantic Kernel

Describe the solution you'd like

Similar to this

     var assistantAgent = new GPTAgent(
         name: "assistant",
         systemMessage: "You are an assistant that help user to do some tasks.",
         config: gpt35,
         httpclient:httpclient)
         .RegisterPrintMessage();

@xuzeyu91 Could you tell us why you want to pass a httpclient? Is that for retry policy/connect to third party openai, etc...

This will be of great help to us, such as viewing the Prompt for analyzing requests, printing input-output response logs, and connecting to third party openai

@xuzeyu91

Thanks, maybe consider using OpenAIChatAgent, which accepts an OpenAIClient in it's constructor and you can pass your http client when creating OpenAIClient

You can check the example here

GPTAgent also uses OpenAIChatAgent, in fact GPTAgent is equivalent to OpenAIChatAgent + OpenAI Message Connector + FunctionCall Middleware, so you can achieve the same behavior of using OpenAIChatAgent in your code
