mcp: use http.ResponseController to ensure writes are flushed (#870)

If the ResponseWriter is a wrapped one (which is quite common when using
middleware to log things like response sizes), the direct cast to
`http.Flusher` doesn't find the flush capability. Instead, use
`http.ResponseController` as introduced in go1.20 which handles
unwrapping to find the base response writer.
