Optionally pass a block to OpenAI::Client.new

[drnic]

This block is ultimately passed to Faraday.

For example, to enable low-level faraday logging:

llm = Langchain::LLM::OpenAI.new(api_key: ENV[OPENAI_API_KEY]) do |f|
  f.response :logger, Logger.new(), bodies: true
end

@drnic Is the logger the only thing that you think you'd need to pass to the Faraday client? We also have this global logging option: https://github.com/andreibondarev/langchainrb?tab=readme-ov-file#logging. I wonder if it's better to have this global flag toggle logging in Faraday here and elsewhere. What's your thoughts?

I ran into the same issue as @drnic where I could not pass a block to the openai client. Then I saw you mentioned the global logging flag, which I wasn't aware of before. However I still think it would be a nice addition to be able to pass the block.

yeah so used Langchain.logger.level = :debug and ran some api calls. I was expecting to see the request/response calls logged but that was not the case. A stronger case for merging this.
