Subject: [PATCH] refactor: enrich description with context before calling
 Agent Generator (#11932)

## Summary
Updates the Agent Generator client to enrich the description with
context before calling, instead of sending `user_instruction` as a
separate parameter.

## Context
Companion PR to Significant-Gravitas/AutoGPT-Agent-Generator#105 which
removes unused parameters from the decompose API.

## Changes
- Enrich `description` with `context` (e.g., clarifying question
answers) before sending
- Remove `user_instruction` from request payload

## How it works
Both input boxes and chat box work the same way - the frontend
constructs a formatted message with answers and sends it as a user
message. The backend then enriches the description with this context
before calling the external Agent Generator service.
