Python : Sample for Swarm Agent Approach

[nmoeller]

Motivation and Context

In OpenAI Swarm & Autogen Swarm Agents are able to handoff via Function Calling, rather than using a Prompt in the Selection Strategy. This PR should provide a sample how you can build a Swarm Agent System in Semantic Kernel.

The example implents the sample of Autogen Swarm.

Hey,

so this is just a sample how an Agent handoff could be done with Function Calling.
Would you be interested in this integrated in Semantic Kernel Agents ?

I think i could also make a class SwarmAgentChat,SwarmSelectionStrategy in SK.

Just let me know if you would be interested in a more sophisticated implementation or the Sample is enough.
