release: 0.1.5 — SSE-stream tools/call to dodge ingress timeout

agent-builder.build (and any long-running skill) takes minutes — LLM
loop + sandbox tests + deploy + wait-for-live-card. A plain JSON POST
to /mcp gets killed by ingress idle timeouts (~60s on traefik) and the
gateway sees "fetch failed" while the upstream is still running.

UpstreamAgent.callTool now negotiates ``Accept: text/event-stream`` on
tools/call. We drain SSE frames, return the final tools/call result,
and fall back to plain JSON if the upstream doesn't speak SSE (older
a2a-pack). Elicit relaying isn't wired yet; for now any
elicitation/create frame is ignored.
