no chat history while using %ai in cells

When I use %%ai chatgpt in a cell to ask a question and then ask a follow up question in the next cell, there is no memory of my first question and the answer to it. In short, it seems there is no chat history using %%ai in cells.

For example:

[5] %%ai chatgpt
     Here is a sentence: "Green is the color of my house." What word class is the first word?  

[5] The word 'Green' is an adjective

[6] %%ai chatgpt
     What word class is the second word? 
     
[6] The second word is a noun.

At the moment the documentation doesn't explicitly tell the user that there is no chat history using cell magic, so most people will assume there is a chat history. From this perspective it is a bug. And I think it would be very useful to have a chat history also in the cells.

This was previously supported, but only for OpenAI chat models, and it was removed in #551 when we upgraded to a newer version of the OpenAI provider. If we reintroduce this feature, we should make it work with as many model providers as possible.
