feat: add private weaviate api_key support on from_texts (#3139)

This PR adds support for providing a Weaviate API Key to the VectorStore
methods `from_documents` and `from_texts`. With this addition, users can
authenticate to Weaviate and make requests to private Weaviate servers
when using these methods.

## Motivation
Currently, LangChain's VectorStore methods do not provide a way to
authenticate to Weaviate. This limits the functionality of the library
and makes it more difficult for users to take advantage of Weaviate's
features.

This PR addresses this issue by adding support for providing a Weaviate
API Key as extra parameter used in the `from_texts` method.
