## Title

    [OpenAI Agents JS Realtime SIP] UserError 'OpenAIRealtimeSIP.buildInitialConfig() does not support SIP turn-detection fields ...' (threshold / prefix_padding_ms / silence_duration_ms)

## Body

    Cause (Documented platform behavior): Per the SDK source, the Realtime Calls API rejects these turn_detection properties for SIP sessions; the SDK validates up front (6ad32cb, 'fail fast on unsupported SIP VAD fields (#741)').
    
    Fix status: documented_behavior
    
    Other error fragments:
    - The Realtime Calls API rejects these session.audio.input.turn_detection properties for SIP sessions, so remove them before accepting the call.
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/openai-agents-js/fdaf0a66ca6e9d89498909ad7cf64745630e8afb/packages/agents-realtime/src/openaiRealtimeSip.ts (github_issue, unknown, documented_behavior): Source lists SIP_UNSUPPORTED_TURN_DETECTION_FIELDS (threshold, prefix_padding_ms, silence_duration_ms) and throws UserError explaining the Realtime Calls API rejects them for SIP sessions.

    Search phrasings: does not support SIP turn-detection fields; openai realtime SIP turn_detection silence_duration_ms rejected; OpenAIRealtimeSIP buildInitialConfig error
