build: generate a2a.json OpenAPI spec via hatch build script

- Configure buf.gen.yaml with openapiv2 to generate Swagger 2.0 spec.
- Configure pyproject.toml with hatch-build-scripts to run generation.
- Add scripts/gen_proto.sh to handle generation and fix gRPC imports.
- Update FastAPI app to load generated a2a.json.
- Update tests to accommodate Swagger 2.0 schema structure.
- Add a2a.json to gitignore.
