StreamableHttpServerTransport held a reference to the Kestrel SSE
response stream via _httpSseWriter for the entire session lifetime.
Since the transport is only disposed when the session itself is disposed
(via explicit DELETE or idle timeout), clients that disconnect without
sending DELETE — which is typical for long-lived SSE connections — left
the response stream pinned for the remainder of the idle timeout window.
Because the Kestrel HTTP connection (and its associated memory pool
buffers, Pipe readers/writers, socket send/receive buffers) is only
collectible once all references to the response stream are released,
this pinned ~20MiB of unmanaged memory per disconnected session until
cleanup. Under steady connect/disconnect churn (e.g., IDE availability
probes) this accumulated into sustained memory growth that eventually
OOMKilled the container.
Fix: release _httpSseWriter from within HandleGetRequestAsync's finally
block so the reference is dropped as soon as the GET request exits, not
just when the session is disposed. SendMessageAsync handles the
now-nullable field via the existing _getHttpResponseCompleted gate, and
any server-to-client messages sent after disconnect are still captured
by the event store writer for replay via Last-Event-ID.
Add a unit test that verifies _httpSseWriter is null once
HandleGetRequestAsync returns.
Relates to #766.
