chore: declare the MCP SDK packages only at the repo root (#1970)

Browse source 
The four v2 SDK packages (`client`, `core`, `server`, `server-legacy`) plus
`ext-apps` were declared in the root manifest *and* again in clients/web, cli,
and tui, so each client installed its own copy. Node resolution walks up and the
root install is on every client's chain — and the root manifest is already the
documented source of truth for what ships — so the per-client entries were
duplicates of a decision made at the root, and they had already drifted: before
this change the tree carried ext-apps 1.7.4 at the root and 1.7.5 under
clients/web, dragging in two copies of the v1 `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk`
(1.29.0 and 1.30.0) through ext-apps' peer dependency.

Nothing imports the v1 SDK; it is not in any manifest of ours, only a peer of
ext-apps, so consolidating ext-apps is the only lever over it. After a clean
install there is now exactly one copy of each, at the root. `npm update` then
moves ext-apps to 1.7.5 and its SDK peer to 1.30.0, whose widened
`@hono/node-server` range (`^1.19.9 || ^2.0.5`) also drops a nested duplicate of
that package.

`express` needed a real home to make this work. `test-servers/src` imports it,
but no manifest declared it: it was reaching `clients/cli/node_modules` only as
a peer of `express-rate-limit` under `@modelcontextprotocol/server-legacy`, so
removing that entry took express with it and every cli test that spawns a test
server failed to resolve it. It is now a root devDependency — test-servers is
root-owned code with no manifest of its own — and `vitest.shared.mts` resolves
it from the root, joining `yaml`, which was already the precedent for exactly
this case. The clients/web duplicate is dropped; its only reference is a
type-only import covered by `@types/express`.
