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.
Pages: Introduction, Installation, Building Servers, and Building Clients.
This PR introduces a basic set of pages. Additional content can be added incrementally in future updates.
This adds automated deployment of a versioned API documentation landing
page using GitHub Pages. The landing page links to documentation hosted
on RubyDoc.info, the de facto standard documentation site for the Ruby
ecosystem. The landing page will update to reflect new releases.
Changes
-------
1. **Documentation generation script** (see `bin/generate-gh-pages.sh`)
Copies and commits documentation files to the gh-pages branch. The
script uses git worktrees to isolate the process from the main
workspace.
The script:
- Creates the gh-pages branch as an orphan branch if it doesn't exist
- Parses semantic versions from tag names, ignoring arbitrary
prefixes (e.g., tags `1.2.3`, `v1.2.3`, and `release-1.2.3` all
create `v1.2.3`)
- Determines the latest version using semantic version sorting
- Copies static Jekyll template files from `docs/` to the gh-pages
root (for the latest version only)
- Generates `docs/_data/versions.yml` with a list of all versions
for the Jekyll templates to consume
2. **Jekyll template files** (see `docs/` directory)
- `docs/_config.yml` - Jekyll configuration
- `docs/index.md` - Landing page template that links to all versions
on RubyDoc.info based on generated `docs/_data/versions.yml`
- `docs/latest/index.html` - Redirect page template that redirects
to the latest documentation on RubyDoc.info
3. **GitHub Actions workflow** (see `.github/workflows/release.yml`)
Added a `publish_gh_pages` job that runs after the `publish_gem` job
on release events. The job invokes the generation script with the
release tag name, then pushes the updated gh-pages branch to deploy
the documentation.
4. **CI validation** (see `.github/workflows/ci.yml`)
Added a `yard` job that runs YARD validation with `--no-output`.
This ensures YARD can successfully parse the codebase (without
generating output), catching documentation issues early in CI.
5. **YARD dependencies** (see `Gemfile`)
Added `yard` and `yard-sorbet` gems as development dependencies to
support documentation validation in CI.
YARD documentation is automatically generated and hosted by
RubyDoc.info when the gem is published to RubyGems.org.
6. **Documentation links** (see `README.md` and `mcp.gemspec`)
Added links to the published API documentation on RubyDoc.info in
the README and gemspec metadata.
