This is a huge patch which does some major refactoring like:
- renaming "Image Generation" to "Image Creation" in most places,
to better match its new command (`!bai image create`)
- relocating image creation command (`!bai image` -> `!bai image create`),
so it wouldn't conflict with the new image editing command (`!bai image edit`)
- introducing a new image editing command (`!bai image edit`), which
is meant to work only with the OpenAI provider, but doesn't fully work yet
due to https://github.com/64bit/async-openai/issues/364, though a next patch will fix it
- adding support for reading images off of Matrix conversations and forwarding them to
text conversations. Works for OpenAI, but not for Anthropic yet
(requires custom patches) and not for OpenAI-Compat (no support for
images there)
- relocating some utils around (base64, mime)
The API reference for `response_format` says:
> This parameter isn't supported for gpt-image-1 which will always return base64-encoded images.

This patch introduces a new `baibot_conversation_start_time_utc`
variable which indicates the time the conversation got started.
Using `baibot_now_utc` is still possible, but given that the current
time is a moving target, its use is in conflict with prompt caching.
Because the new `baibot_conversation_start_time_utc` prompt variable
is a more reasonable default, we're now using it in all sample configs.
The other prerequisite seems to be not using a `prompt` (`prompt: null`),
but we already supported this.
It'd be nice to add an optional `max_completion_tokens` parameter as
well, for the benefit of the o1 models, but this is not yet supported by
async-openai.
Possibly tracked here: https://github.com/64bit/async-openai/issues/272
Fixes https://github.com/etkecc/baibot/issues/10
This also includes them in the default prompts (for newly-created agents),
so that people can get a better experience out of the box.
