Isolate Stateless Requests in Ephemeral Sessions per SEP-2567
## Motivation and Context SEP-2567 (modelcontextprotocol/modelcontextprotocol#2567, merged for the 2026-07-28 spec release) makes MCP sessionless: every Streamable HTTP POST must be fully self-contained, with no protocol-level session state shared between requests. `StreamableHTTPTransport` already implements the SEP's transport surface via `stateless: true` (no `Mcp-Session-Id` issued or required, GET returns 405, DELETE is a no-op, server-to-client requests raise), but its dispatch had a state leak: stateless POSTs were handled with `session: nil`, so `Server#init` wrote `@client` and `@client_capabilities` onto the shared `Server` instance. Concurrent stateless requests could therefore observe another client's identity, and the data persisted across requests, which is exactly what SEP-2567 forbids. The TypeScript SDK's stateless prototypes (the closed typescript-sdk#2058/#2131/#2251 stack) solve this with per-request dispatch; this change applies the equivalent fix within the existing architecture: - Stateless `handle_initialization`, `handle_regular_request`, and `dispatch_notification` now run handlers against an ephemeral per-request `ServerSession` (with `session_id: nil`), so client info, logging level, and initialized state live only for the duration of that POST. Repeated `initialize` requests are naturally permitted because each POST gets a fresh, never-initialized session. - `send_notification` in stateless mode now returns `false` (non-delivery) instead of raising. With ephemeral sessions in place, a tool calling `server_context.report_progress` or `notify_log_message` would otherwise route every call into the exception reporter; non-delivery matches how these helpers already degrade when no session exists. `send_request` (server-to-client requests) still raises, as those are genuinely unsupported without a stream. Resolves #388. ## How Has This Been Tested? New tests in `test/mcp/server/transports/streamable_http_transport_test.rb`: - a stateless `initialize` POST leaves `Server#client_capabilities` and the server's `@client` untouched (the leak regression) - repeated `initialize` POSTs both succeed with 200 and no `Mcp-Session-Id` header - a tool calling `server_context.report_progress` under stateless mode returns its result normally and the exception reporter is never invoked - the existing "stateless mode does not support server-sent events" test is updated to assert the new `false` return instead of the removed raise All other existing stateless-mode tests pass unchanged. ## Breaking Changes `StreamableHTTPTransport#send_notification` in stateless mode now returns `false` instead of raising `RuntimeError`. The raise message was not a documented contract, broadcasting in stateless mode was always a non-deliverable operation, and the boolean return matches the method's documented semantics in every other non-delivery case. Default (session-oriented) mode is unchanged.
