* Option to mount SSE server to existing ASGI server
Fixes#311
Add option to mount SSE server to an existing ASGI server.
* Add a new method `sse_app` in `src/mcp/server/fastmcp/server.py` to return an instance of the SSE server app.
* Update the `run_sse_async` method in `src/mcp/server/fastmcp/server.py` to use the new `sse_app` method.
* Update the documentation in `README.md` to include instructions on how to mount the SSE server to an existing ASGI server.
* Fix the example in `README.md` to use `app.mount('/', mcp.sse_app())` instead.

uv add is for adding dependency to uv managed python projects, and folks
not familiar with uv may mistaken the command for running mcp. Added
wordings that clarifies this.
- Add proper generic parameter for lifespan context type
- Update README with TypedDict example for strong typing
- Fix context variable initialization in server
- Improve property return type safety
- Remove redundant documentation
- Ensure compatibility with existing tests
Add comprehensive documentation for lifespan support:
- Add usage examples for both Server and FastMPC classes
- Document startup/shutdown patterns
- Show context access in tools and handlers
- Clean up spacing in test files
Update the README.md to include FastMCP as the recommended way to build MCP servers. FastMCP is a high-level, Pythonic interface that makes it easy to build MCP servers with minimal boilerplate. The low-level implementation is still available for more control.
