Nice! Since you always map the inner eventsource error anyway, It would simplify the code quite a bit I think to wrap StreamError(EventSourceError) instead with #[from].
If I'm not mistaken, that would remove map_stream_error instead as we can use Into, remove the intermediate error, and avoid reading out the bytes of the response early.

We can't because we need to determine what OpenAIError is wrapped inside the EventSourceError::InvalidStatusCode and as a bonus we also map the EventSourceError::Transport to OpenAIError::Reqwest.

The current StreamError implementation wraps whatever happens in a string, throwing away important underlying information. Specifically this prevents us from catching ContextLengthExceeded errors when streaming is enabled.
This PR rewrites the error handling so that the streaming and non-streaming implementations share the same error parsing code and both return OpenAIError's of which StreamError is now a stream specific subset.
Unfortunately this is a breaking change, any users that explicitly match on StreamError will have to be modified to accommodate the extra information that's now returned in the error.
