Python: [Feature]: Support the detail field in OpenAI Chat API image_url payload #4616

Description

Description:
According to OpenAI’s official API documentation (link), the image_url property allows an optional detail field with values "auto", "low", or "high" for specifying image resolution or processing detail.
Currently, in _chat_client.py, only the url key is supported. The detail field is not included and cannot currently be configured.

Suggested Enhancement:

• Add support for the detail field in the image_url payload, making it possible to specify the detail level when returning image URLs.
• Optionally, allow the detail level to be set via a parameter, or configuration, with a sensible default (e.g., "auto").

Rationale:
Supporting the detail field is required for full compatibility with the OpenAI API and allows users to adjust image processing quality in chat completions.
