Christophe Bornet 0392b6bae4 fix(core): fix Pydantic v1 support in tools/runnable (#33698)
`BaseTool.args_schema` is documented as accepting a Pydantic v1 model,
but several code paths assumed v2 and raised when handed a v1 schema
(e.g. an `AttributeError` from calling
`model_json_schema()`/`model_fields` on a v1 model). This affected
anyone using a v1 `args_schema`, and anyone composing runnables whose
input/output schema is a v1 model.

This PR makes the tool/runnable schema-derivation code version-agnostic.

## Type contract

`TypeBaseModel` (and `PydanticBaseModel`) now include
`pydantic.v1.BaseModel`, so the type honestly reflects what tools and
runnables already accept at runtime. The public schema accessors
(`Runnable.get_input_schema`/`get_output_schema` and the
`input_schema`/`output_schema` properties) return `TypeBaseModel`.

## Version-agnostic helpers

Added to `langchain_core.utils.pydantic`, each dispatching on the
model's Pydantic version so callers don't have to:

- `model_json_schema(model)` — JSON schema for either version.
- `model_validate(model, obj)` — validation for either version.
- `get_fields(model)` — field map for either version (existing helper,
now used consistently).

Internally, direct `.model_json_schema()` / `.model_fields` calls are
replaced with these helpers (or with `get_input_jsonschema()` /
`get_output_jsonschema()`).

## Behavior change worth a close look

When deriving a schema from a v1 model (in `RunnableParallel`,
`RunnableAssign`, and `RunnableSequence` output schemas), a **required**
v1 field is now correctly carried over as required. Previously the v1
path read the field's `default` — which is `None` for a required v1
field — and silently turned required fields into optional/nullable ones;
`default_factory` fields were dropped entirely. The new
`_get_schema_field_definition` helper translates a v1 `ModelField`
faithfully (required → `...`, factory preserved) and dispatches
explicitly on the field type.

Quick Install

pip install langchain-core

🤔 What is this?

LangChain Core contains the base abstractions that power the LangChain ecosystem.

These abstractions are designed to be as modular and simple as possible.

The benefit of having these abstractions is that any provider can implement the required interface and then easily be used in the rest of the LangChain ecosystem.

⛰️ Why build on top of LangChain Core?

The LangChain ecosystem is built on top of langchain-core. Some of the benefits:

  • Modularity: We've designed Core around abstractions that are independent of each other, and not tied to any specific model provider.
  • Stability: We are committed to a stable versioning scheme, and will communicate any breaking changes with advance notice and version bumps.
  • Battle-tested: Core components have the largest install base in the LLM ecosystem, and are used in production by many companies.
