The exemption was URL-only, so an authorization server configured at
the MCP endpoint's own URL — `oauthTokenUrl` takes any absolute URL —
made the transport-internal refresh take the exempt branch and run with
no signal, no body buffering and no deadline. That is the one request
this change exists to bound.
`isExempt` now receives the request's headers as well as its URL, and
`exemptMcpEndpoint` refuses to exempt anything sent as
`application/x-www-form-urlencoded`, before any URL comparison. That is
a discriminator rather than a heuristic: the token exchange, the
refresh and revocation are all form-encoded per RFC 6749 §4.1.3 and RFC
7009 §2.1, and MCP is JSON-RPC over application/json and never is.
Also records, on the no-deadline route test, what it does not catch: at
a 400ms wait an unconditional timer restored at the production 30s
budget would still leave the request pending and the test would pass.
Catching that needs either a ~31s wait on every CI run or a route-level
deadline knob existing only for the test, and a second source of truth
for the deadline is the defect round 13 removed.
