### Description
This PR moves the Elasticsearch classes to a partners package.
Note that we will not move (and later remove) `ElasticKnnSearch`. It
were previously deprecated.
`ElasticVectorSearch` is going to stay in the community package since it
is used quite a lot still.
Also note that I left the `ElasticsearchTranslator` for self query
untouched because it resides in main `langchain` package.
### Dependencies
There will be another PR that updates the notebooks (potentially pulling
them into the partners package) and templates and removes the classes
from the community package, see
https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/pull/17468
#### Open question
How to make the transition smooth for users? Do we move the import
aliases and require people to install `langchain-elasticsearch`? Or do
we remove the import aliases from the `langchain` package all together?
What has worked well for other partner packages?

**Description:** This PR introduces a new "Astra DB" Partner Package.
So far only the vector store class is _duplicated_ there, all others
following once this is validated and established.
Along with the move to separate package, incidentally, the class name
will change `AstraDB` => `AstraDBVectorStore`.
The strategy has been to duplicate the module (with prospected removal
from community at LangChain 0.2). Until then, the code will be kept in
sync with minimal, known differences (there is a makefile target to
automate drift control. Out of convenience with this check, the
community package has a class `AstraDBVectorStore` aliased to `AstraDB`
at the end of the module).
With this PR several bugfixes and improvement come to the vector store,
as well as a reshuffling of the doc pages/notebooks (Astra and
Cassandra) to align with the move to a separate package.
**Dependencies:** A brand new pyproject.toml in the new package, no
changes otherwise.

- [x] add linear ticket to bump core -> community, community->langchain,
and core->openai deps
- [ ] (optional): add `pip install langchain-openai` command to each
notebook using it
- [x] Update docstrings to not need `openai` install
- [x] Add serialization
- [x] deprecate old models
Contributor steps:
- [x] Add secret names to manual integrations workflow in
.github/workflows/_integration_test.yml
- [x] Add secrets to release workflow (for pre-release testing) in
.github/workflows/_release.yml
Maintainer steps (Contributors should not do these):
- [x] set up pypi and test pypi projects
- [x] add credential secrets to Github Actions
- [ ] add package to conda-forge
Functional changes to existing classes:
- now relies on openai client v1 (1.6.1) via concrete dep in
langchain-openai package
Codebase organization
- some function calling stuff moved to
`langchain_core.utils.function_calling` in order to be used in both
community and langchain-openai
