add cost property to agents

[ezpzzz19]

users should be able to fetch the price from each agent involved in their chat.

@kevin666aa for you to consider adding this functionality back in v0.2

just curious about the reason why cost functionality is removed in v0.2. thx.

@kevin666aa An ideal implementation (to support analysis, tracing, etc.) would be to record the cost of each message. Adding a timestamp field would also be useful. These would support many other metrics for benchmarking etc.

Note: it would be nice to have that also for OpenAI assistant API. It seems that #769 wouldn't work in that case

@kevin666aa please check the comment above if you haven't.

Thanks. Adding tasks to #770:

1. supporting cost calculation in assistant API
2. record the cost of each message.
3. Add time stamp to creation of each messages.

Hi. I wonder if functions are included in the cost? thanks.

I assume you are referring to "functions" params passed to OpenAI, and yes it should be counted as completion token.
