* Reduce dependencies to 8.x versions of packages
When building for netstandard2.0 or net8.0, the ModelContextProtocol library now only depends on 8.x versions of nuget packages, rather than using the newer 9.x versions. The exception to this are packages that don't have 8.x versions.
This also introduces a net9.0 tfm. When building for net9.0, it'll use 9.x versions of packages.
The PR temporarily removes the Microsoft.Extensions.AI.nupkg reference (the Microsoft.Extensions.AI.Abstractions reference is still very much there). The latest Microsoft.Extensions.AI package on nuget has a System.Text.Json 9.x reference, but the next build to be published drops that down to 8.x as well. Once that build is published, the dependency will be added back, and temporary polyfills (in particular TemporaryAIFunctionFactory) will be deleted.
* Fix StdioClientSessionTransport shutdown
StreamClientSessionTransport's ReadMessageAsync method does await CleanupAsync in its finally. CleanupAsync awaits _readTask. _readTask _is_ ReadMessageAsync. So it's waiting for itself to complete, which will then always timeout. We may want to refactor how this works more in the future, but for now, make sure it doesn't wait for itself.
* Fix dangling requests when server unexpectedly shuts down
If the client makes a request to the server and while waiting for the response the server shuts down, the client hangs. Make sure that when the client's message loops ends due to the server's output it's reading from ends, any pending requests are notified.
* Add net9.0 testing
* Avoid docker port conflicts from test suites running concurrently
* Changed the name of the ActivitySource and Metric to clarify that the semantic conventions have not been ratified yet.
* Update src/ModelContextProtocol/Diagnostics.cs

- We were adding tools/prompts from the collections on every request. If multiple requests came in with different cursors, we'd re-add the same tools each time.
- We were defeating the purpose of pagination by doing all of the aggregation in the server. If a custom handler returns a paginated result, we should instead propagate that back to the client, who can choose to get more results when needed.
* Add ModelContextProtocol.AspNetCore
- Remove IServerTransport and HttpListenerSseServerTransport
- Replace HttpListenerSseServerTransport usage in tests with ASP.NET Core.

* Improve progress reporting
- Enable injecting an `IProgress<>` into a tool call to report progress when the client has supplied a progress token
- Add a custom type for ProgressToken and ProgressNotification to map to the schema
- Simplify RequestId to match ProgressToken's shape
- Serialize StdioClientTransport's SendMessageAsync implementation
- Add strongly-typed names for all request methods
- Change all request IDs created by McpJsonRpcEndpoint to include a guid for that endpoint

- This also paves the way for better multi-session support
- We should definitely rethink names for the transport API
- For now, I kept the names similar as possible, so we can
focus on the API shape

* Fix some issues with Native AOT
- An anonymous type was being used in McpClient for the initialize result message. Switched to use the type for that purpose that already existed.
- A bunch of the request params / result types were not in the source context or referenced from types that were or from custom converters. Added all the request/result types to the context.
- Improved the warning message for WithTools.

* List tools from DI once
- Follow best practice to not mutate options outside of IConfigureOptions
- Long-term, we should move the repeated work from SetToolsHandler into
an IPostConfigureOptions service or IMcpServerConnectionFactory
* Add Can_Create_Multiple_Servers_From_Options_And_List_Registered_Tools
* Flip stdin and stdout in StreamClientTransport
* s/McpToolType/McpServerToolType
* Clarify stdin and stdout refers to server process in StreamClientTransport
* fixup
* Adding support for returning collections from tools
This will mean we can return multiple AIContent objects from a tool, such as a mixed text/image set
Contributes to #68
* Code review feedback
* Adding tests and some more cases
* More cases in switch and tests
* Add [McpServerTool] support for instance methods
By popular demand, enables [McpServerTool] on instance methods. The instance is constructed per invocation, using ActivatorUtilities.CreateInstance when possible so that constructor arguments are satisfied from DI.
* Add disposal tests
* Overhaul tool handling
- Renames [McpTool{Type}] to [McpServerTool{Type}], in order to distinguish representations of tools on the server from tools on the client.
- Enables [McpServerTool] methods to have arguments injected from DI, as well as a specific set of types from the implementation directly, like IMcpServer.
- Renames WithTools to WithToolsFromAssembly.
- All of the WithToolsXx methods now publish each individual McpServerTool into DI; other code can do so as well. The options setup code gathers all of the tools from DI and combines them into a collection which is then stored in McpServerOptions and used to construct the server.
- The server tools specified via DI as well as manually-provided handlers, using CallToolHandler as a fallback in case the requested tool doesn't exist in the tools collection, and ListToolsHandler augments the information for whatever tools exist.
- The tools are stored in McpServerOptions in a new McpServerToolCollection type, which is a thread-safe container that exposes add/removal notification. Adding/removing tools triggers a change notification that in turn sends a notification to the client about a tools update.
- The ServerOptions are exposed from the server instance.
- Removed cursor-based APIs from McpClientExtensions.
- Changed McpClientExtensions APIs to return `Task<IList<...>` rather than `IAsyncEnumerable<...>`.
I'm sure this will need to evolve further before we're "done", but it's a significant improvement from where we are now. One area I'm not super happy with is the notifying collection; that might work ok for a stdio server, where you can grab the created collection from the server's options and mutate it, but I don't know how well that's going to work for sse servers.
* Make McpServerTool{Collection} extensible
* Fix README.md example
* Add notifications test
* Address feedback
