Lets make sure to put this new behavior behind the enable_a2a_compliant_streaming flag so that existing integrations are not impacted, but notified of this change.

Code looks good, but a few of our tests failed. Left some comments throughout about ways to address it.
fix: update tests fix: simplify code by storing in class fix: remove uneeded code change fix: hide a2a artifact streaming under feature flag fix: use walrus operator fix: use star to signify end of unnamed fix: add check for walrus legacy fix: clarify enable_a2a_compliant_streaming parameter in StrandsA2AExecutor initialization fix: update tests refactor: streamline artifact addition logic in StrandsA2AExecutor

Codecov is 2% off, which I think is fine. And the api diff check sees the additional enable_a2a_compliant_streaming parameter as potentially breaking, but its been implemented such that it wont break existing users

Description
This PR updates the a2a executor to use the a2a libraries artifact append function. Intermediate chunks are best represented by artifact updates with append set to true, not task status updates. Please see this discussion on the a2a repo for more justification.
This feature is now hidden behind the
