Summary

Add default values to single-value Literal type fields in content types so users don't have to pass them explicitly.

Motivation and Context

Content types like TextContent and ImageContent have single-value Literal type fields (e.g., type: Literal["text"]) that should default automatically since there's only one valid value.

Before:

TextContent(type="text", text="hello")
ImageContent(type="image", data="...", mimeType="image/png")

After:

TextContent(text="hello")
ImageContent(data="...", mimeType="image/png")

Fixes #1731

How Has This Been Tested?

Added regression test test_content_type_literal_defaults in tests/test_types.py covering representative types (TextContent, ImageContent, PromptReference).

Breaking Changes

None. Existing code that explicitly passes the type field will continue to work.
