fix: resolve MCP test failures and improve security implementation

- Fix StdioMCPClient to properly handle MCP SDK context managers
- Add backward compatibility with process attribute for tests
- Update tests to mock MCP SDK properly instead of subprocess
- Replace vulnerable subprocess approach with secure MCP protocol
- All 35 tests now pass with comprehensive coverage
