fix: memory leak in session removal - close MCP server properly (#471)

- Add close() method to N8NDocumentationMCPServer that:
  - Calls server.close() (MCP SDK cleanup)
  - Clears internal cache
  - Nullifies service references to help GC
- Update removeSession() to call server.close() before releasing references

Root cause: removeSession() deleted server from map but didn't call cleanup
Evidence: Production server memory grew ~1GB in 43 minutes (10% to 35%)
