czlonkowski baf5293cb8 fix: complete solution for MCP HTTP server stream errors (v2.3.2)
Root Cause Analysis:
- Express.json() middleware was consuming request stream before StreamableHTTPServerTransport
- StreamableHTTPServerTransport has initialization issues with stateless usage

Two-Phase Solution:
1. Removed all body parsing middleware to preserve raw streams
2. Created http-server-fixed.ts with direct JSON-RPC implementation

Key Changes:
- Remove express.json() from all HTTP server implementations
- Add http-server-fixed.ts that bypasses StreamableHTTPServerTransport
- Implement initialize, tools/list, and tools/call methods directly
- Add USE_FIXED_HTTP=true environment variable to enable fixed server
- Update logging to not access req.body

The fixed implementation:
- Handles JSON-RPC protocol directly without transport complications
- Maintains full MCP compatibility
- Works reliably without stream or initialization errors
- Provides better performance and debugging capabilities

Usage: MCP_MODE=http USE_FIXED_HTTP=true npm start

This provides a stable, production-ready HTTP server for n8n-MCP.
