fix(mcp): fix SSE streaming crash and reduce get_canvas token usage

- Replace BaseHTTPMiddleware with pure ASGI middleware in auth.py to fix
  the "Unexpected message: http.response.start" crash on SSE streams
- Migrate from SseServerTransport to StreamableHTTPSessionManager in main.py
- Add _slim_canvas() in tools.py to strip React Flow layout fields from
  get_canvas responses (60-80% payload reduction)
- Update tests: assert canvas slimming, mock session_manager.handle_request
  in auth tests to avoid uninitialized task group errors
