This change replaces httpx with the requestx library (v1.0.3) as the HTTP client for the OpenAI Python SDK. Key changes include: - Updated pyproject.toml to use requestx from GitHub (requires Python 3.12+) - Updated all source files to import and use requestx instead of httpx - Created wrapper classes for requestx.Client and requestx.AsyncClient since they cannot be subclassed (Rust extension types) - Added URL class implementation in _types.py for compatibility - Updated all test files to use requestx - Added compatibility handling for missing attributes (is_closed, timeout, is_stream_consumed) that requestx doesn't provide - Removed respx (httpx mock library) since it's incompatible with requestx Note: Some tests that relied on respx mocking will need to be updated with an alternative mocking approach. https://claude.ai/code/session_01LjnafWCSDa7FxCDB5E54DP
