As per #276, this PR adds support for tool execution even when a model does not support tools/functions.
Before this PR, in Agent and Interactive modes, the model is probed for tools support. If tools are supported they are used, if not it behaves like in Ask mode.
With the PR, when in Agent and Interactive modes, if the model does not support tools, it falls back to HackerWithoutTools, which engineers the prompt to simulate tool execution (similar to the earlier Jeddict versions):
The tool representation and frameworks is the existing one in package io.github.jeddict.ai.agent and in particular, if in Interactive mode, tools that produce any side effect must be allowed by the user.
Nowadays most models support tools (which is btw more verbose and therefore more expensive). making this feature maybe less relevant; the outcome is however pretty good and it's a good choice to use cheaper models.
