* Revert "build: Add ollama sdk dependency"

After consideration, we're going to use the generic OpenAI API instead
of the Ollama-specific API to avoid duplicate work.

This reverts commit bc6b366468cdd66b52540aac9c7d8b584ab48ad0.

* refactor: Move OpenAI API call logic into utils.utils

This will allow reuse of this logic in a generic VLM model

NOTE: There is a subtle change here in the ordering of the text prompt and
the image in the call to the OpenAI API. When run against Ollama, this
ordering makes a big difference. If the prompt comes before the image, the
result is terse and not usable whereas the prompt coming after the image
works as expected and matches the non-OpenAI chat API.

* refactor: Refactor from Ollama SDK to generic OpenAI API

Branch: OllamaVlmModel

Signed-off-by: Gabe Goodhart <ghart@us.ibm.com>

* fix: Linting, formatting, and bug fixes

The one bug fix was in the timeout arg to openai_image_request. Otherwise,
this is all style changes to get MyPy and black passing cleanly.
