3452e5c187 Add unified declarative flow loading (#6308)
Add a single declaration loader shared by API and CLI callers.

- Add FlowDefinition.from_declaration for FlowDefinition instances, dictionaries, YAML/JSON strings, and file paths
- Add Flow.from_declaration to build runnable flows directly from the same inputs
- Route declarative flow CLI loading through Flow.from_declaration so path handling and validation stay centralized

```
# Load just the serializable definition when you do not need to run it yet.
definition = FlowDefinition.from_declaration(path="flows/research.crewai")
definition = FlowDefinition.from_declaration(contents=flow_yaml)
definition = FlowDefinition.from_declaration(contents=flow_dict)

# Build a runnable flow directly from the same declaration inputs.
flow = Flow.from_declaration(path="flows/research.crewai")
flow = Flow.from_declaration(contents=flow_yaml)
flow = Flow.from_declaration(contents=flow_dict)
flow = Flow.from_declaration(contents=definition)

# Run it like any other flow.
result = flow.kickoff(inputs={"topic": "AI agents"})

# The CLI now goes through the same path-based loader.
# crewai run --definition flows/research.crewai

221dfdb08e Consolidate crewai run and crewai flow kickoff (#6296)
Make `crewai run` the single execution path for crews and flows, with
`crewai flow kickoff` kept as a deprecated compatibility alias.

4b2ce00a09 Add declarative Flow CLI support (#6294)
* Add declarative Flow CLI support

Currently, declarative flows can be loaded by the runtime, but the CLI
still treats them as an experimental definition file instead of a
first-class Flow project shape.

With this PR, `crewai create flow --declarative` scaffolds a YAML-backed
Flow project, and `crewai run`, `crewai flow kickoff`, and `crewai flow
plot` can run against the configured definition.

This also lets crew actions reference reusable crew definition files or
folders and override their inputs from the Flow definition, so
declarative flows can compose existing declarative crews without
inlining everything.
