assistant2: Handle LLM providers that do not emit `StartMessage` events (#23485)

This PR updates Assistant2's response streaming to work with LLM
providers that do not emit `StartMessage` events.

Now if we get a `Text` event without having received a `StartMessage`
event we will still insert an Assistant message so we can stream in the
response from the model.

Release Notes:

- N/A
```
