Sri Hari Haran Sharma a07337fea0 fix: return method-specific MCP responses (#18671)
## Summary

Fixes #18524 

Fixes the MCP response contract for non-`initialize` methods.

Previously, `/mcp` returned initialize-style metadata for methods like
`tools/list`, which caused strict MCP clients to reject the response
shape. The endpoint also returned `201 Created` for RPC calls even
though no resource was being created.

## Changes

- return only method-specific payloads for MCP list methods
  - `tools/list` -> `{ tools: [...] }`
  - `prompts/list` -> `{ prompts: [] }`
  - `resources/list` -> `{ resources: [] }`
- keep MCP server metadata only on `initialize`
- make `/mcp` return `200 OK` instead of `201 Created`
- add regression tests for:
  - `tools/list` response shape
  - `prompts/list` response shape
  - `resources/list` response shape

## Why

Strict MCP clients expect:
- standard RPC transport semantics over HTTP
- method-specific JSON-RPC result payloads

Returning initialize metadata for non-`initialize` methods breaks that
expectation and can cause client deserialization or protocol validation
failures.

## Verification

- reproduced the issue locally against `/mcp`
- verified `tools/list` was previously returning initialize-style fields
- verified `tools/list` now returns only `result.tools`
- verified `/mcp` now returns `200 OK`
- ran targeted Jest tests:

```bash
cd /Users/apple/MyProjects/OpenSource/twenty/packages/twenty-server
npx jest --runInBand src/engine/api/mcp/services/__tests__/mcp-protocol.service.spec.ts src/engine/api/mcp/services/__tests__/mcp-tool-executor.service.spec.ts
