stdio framing
StdioMessageIO reads Content-Length headers then the JSON body.
The parser tolerates both CRLF (\r\n) and LF (\n) header separators.
Do not change to strict CRLF-only — this breaks the MCP handshake on some hosts.
Startup errors
Fatal startup errors must be written to stderr only, never stdout.
