## Title

    Reproduction request: A Responses API call with the web_search tool returns HTTP 200, but building the typed response object fails with Attrib

## Body

    What I found:
    Python 3.14 unifies typing.Union and types.UnionType and changes runtime union behavior, affecting code that introspects or mutates Union objects.
    openai-python v1.109.1 _build_discriminated_union_meta assigns cast(CachedDiscriminatorType, union).__discriminator__ = details after building a discriminator mapping.
    
    Evidence:
    https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.14.html · https://github.com/openai/openai-python/blob/v1.109.1/src/openai/_models.py · https://github.com/openai/openai-python/issues/2704
    
    Still unknown:
    Whether every action variant described in KFA problem revision 1 (unrecognised action type, search with only queries) is covered by openai >=2.17.0 or still triggers fallback decoding.
    
    Useful next check:
    Whether every action variant described in KFA problem revision 1 (unrecognised action type, search with only queries) is covered by openai >=2.17.0 or still triggers fallback decoding.
