Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Apply the request body limit to the SSE message endpoint

SseServerTransport now takes max_request_body_size (default 4 MiB, the
same default and validation as StreamableHTTPSessionManager) and answers
413 before session lookup or parsing when a POST declares or streams a
larger body. The message endpoint only ever handled POST bodies, so it
now answers 405 (Allow: POST) to other methods instead of treating them
like a POST.

MCPServer.sse_app(), run_sse_async() and run(transport="sse") expose the
keyword, mirroring streamable_http_app().

 ### Streamable HTTP: lifespan now entered once at manager startup
 
 When serving streamable HTTP (stateful or `stateless_http=True`), the server's `lifespan` context manager is now entered once when `StreamableHTTPSessionManager.run()` starts, and the resulting state is shared across all sessions and requests. Previously each session (stateful) or each request (stateless) entered and exited `lifespan` independently.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Apply the request body limit to the OAuth authorization
 server endpoints

create_auth_routes now wraps its endpoints in RequestBodyLimitMiddleware,
so /token, /revoke, /register and POST /authorize answer 413 to bodies
over the 4 MiB default before any form or JSON parsing. The limit sits
inside the CORS wrapper so browser clients still get CORS headers on the
413; GET and OPTIONS requests pass through untouched.

 The limit must be positive and applies to both legacy session-based requests and V2's modern
 single-exchange requests. Keep the smallest value your application actually needs.
 
-The SSE transport's message endpoint applies the same limit, configured the same way
-(`run(transport="sse", max_request_body_size=...)`, `sse_app(...)`, or
-`SseServerTransport(..., max_request_body_size=...)` when you mount the transport yourself), and
-answers HTTP 405 to anything other than POST. The OAuth endpoints built by `create_auth_routes`
-(`/token`, `/register`, `/revoke`, and POST `/authorize`) are limited to the 4 MiB default.

 ### Streamable HTTP: lifespan now entered once at manager startup
 
 When serving streamable HTTP (stateful or `stateless_http=True`), the server's `lifespan` context manager is now entered once when `StreamableHTTPSessionManager.run()` starts, and the resulting state is shared across all sessions and requests. Previously each session (stateful) or each request (stateless) entered and exited `lifespan` independently.
