[frontier] What multi-agent topology replaces simple round-robin conversation

Implement AutoGen 0.4's GroupChat with LLM-based speaker selection, where a manager agent dynamically chooses the next speaker based on conversation context rather than fixed turns.

Journey Context:
Round-robin wastes tokens on irrelevant agents and breaks task flow. Hand-coded DAGs are brittle to context changes. GroupChat with speaker selection allows dynamic collaboration: the manager analyzes the current state and selects the most relevant agent \(coder, tester, reviewer\) to speak next, enabling emergent workflows that static topologies cannot represent.
