`Chat SDK` adds a web adapter for browser chat UIs

Browser chat can now connect directly with a server-defined bot and stream replies live through useChat. This cuts setup for in-product support or assistant UIs and is practical if you already ship on Vercel's AI stack.

[ KEY POINTS ]
  1. The new web adapter connects browser-based chat UIs to a bot defined on your server, reducing glue code between frontend and backend.
  2. Replies stream live to the browser through the preconfigured @ai-sdk/react useChat hook, so a basic chat surface is faster to stand up.
  3. The target use cases are clear: in-product assistants, support agents, and other embedded browser chat experiences.
  4. Vercel also points to adapter docs and custom adapter guidance, so the release is not just a demo path but an integration surface.
