Pull request overview
This PR modifies the VisionAgent sample to fetch image bytes using HttpClient instead of passing a URI directly to the API. This change resolves a 403 Forbidden error that occurs when some image hosting services (like Wikipedia) block direct URI access from automated requests.
- Changed image handling from URI-based (
UriContent) to byte array-based (DataContent) - Added HttpClient with User-Agent header to download image bytes before sending to the agent
- Maintains the same functional behavior while working around external service restrictions

The User-Agent header is added to work around the 403 Forbidden error, but there's no comment explaining why this is necessary. According to the coding guidelines, sample code should be well-documented with comments explaining the purpose of each step. Consider adding a comment above line 22 explaining that some image hosting services (like Wikipedia) require a User-Agent header to prevent automated scraping.

There's an extra blank line here that should be removed to maintain consistency with the coding style in other samples.
