MCPP-TRN06: Legacy HTTP+SSE transport only

Why it matters

The HTTP+SSE transport (2024-11-05) is replaced by Streamable HTTP since 2025-03-26 and formally deprecated in 2026-07-28. It carries the session identifier in the URL and lacks the protocol-version and Origin requirements of the new transport.

Remediation

Expose a Streamable HTTP endpoint (single POST endpoint). Keep the SSE endpoint only for legacy clients, behind the same authorization.
