fix: add implementation description metadata (#981)

## Summary
- add the optional `description` field to `mcp.Implementation`
- keep the field omitted when empty
- cover JSON marshal/unmarshal behavior with a focused regression test

Fixes #977.

## To verify
- `go test ./mcp -run TestImplementationDescriptionJSON -count=1`
- `go test ./mcp -run TestServerRequest_PerRequestAccessors -count=1`
- `go test ./mcp -count=1`
- `go test ./...`
- `git diff --check`
