Mark Backman d3021b4590 Rename example files to prepend parent folder name, preventing package shadowing
Example files like openai.py shadow installed packages when Python adds the
script directory to sys.path. Prepend the parent folder name to each example
file (e.g. openai.py -> function-calling-openai.py). Also split
thinking-and-mcp/ into separate mcp/ and thinking/ directories.

Grok Voice Agent Realtime Example
This example demonstrates using xAI's Grok Voice Agent API for real-time
voice conversations. The Grok Voice Agent provides:
- Real-time audio streaming with low latency
- Built-in voice activity detection (VAD)
- Multiple voice options (Ara, Rex, Sal, Eve, Leo)
- Built-in tools: web_search, x_search, file_search
- Custom function calling
Requirements:
- XAI_API_KEY environment variable set
- pip install pipecat-ai[grok]
Usage:
python 50-grok-realtime.py --transport webrtc
python 50-grok-realtime.py --transport daily
