Per MCP spec, clients that no longer need a session SHOULD send an HTTP
DELETE to the MCP endpoint with the Mcp-Session-Id header to explicitly
terminate it. Servers MAY respond with 405 Method Not Allowed when they
don't support client-initiated termination.
`MCP::Client::HTTP#close` sends the DELETE with session headers, clears
local session state regardless of outcome, and is a no-op when no
session has been established.

Per the Streamable HTTP spec, if the server returns an Mcp-Session-Id
header during `initialize`, the client MUST include it on subsequent
requests. Capture the session ID and protocol version from the
`initialize` response and attach them automatically on subsequent
POSTs.
Per the Protocol Version Header section of the spec, the client MUST
also include `MCP-Protocol-Version` on all subsequent requests so the
server can respond based on the negotiated protocol version.
Map 404 responses to a new `SessionExpiredError` (a subclass of
`RequestHandlerError` for backward compatibility) and clear local
session state so callers can start a fresh session with a new
`initialize` request, as required by the spec.

The Streamable HTTP spec allows servers to respond with either
`application/json` or `text/event-stream`. The client previously
rejected the latter. Add SSE parsing via the optional
`event_stream_parser` gem (users add it to their Gemfile when their
server uses SSE), dispatch on the response Content-Type, and scan the
event stream for the first JSON-RPC response message.
Document the new optional dependency in both the README's HTTP
Transport Layer section and docs/building-clients.md.
No other Streamable HTTP features (202 handling, session IDs,
`connect`, DELETE termination) are included here; those will land in
follow-up PRs.

Follow-up to https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ruby-sdk/pull/181.
The landing page at https://ruby.sdk.modelcontextprotocol.io previously only listed version links
to RubyDoc.info. Add multi-page documentation using the just-the-docs Jekyll theme with
sidebar navigation, search, and code highlighting.
