test(mcplocal): prove chat SSE streams live through the proxy, not buffered
`mcpctl chat reviewer` showed nothing until the turn finished, then dumped
the whole answer at once. mcpd streams token deltas and the CLI renders
them incrementally — the sole buffering point was mcplocal's catch-all
/api/v1/* proxy reading the whole SSE body via res.text() before replying.
The previous commit (cherry-picked from feat/agentic-teams) pipes the body
through instead; this one adds the cover that was missing:

- proxy-long-running.test.ts: a progressive-delivery test in which the
  stand-in mcpd withholds its final frame until the client has observed the
  first delta through the proxy. A buffering proxy cannot satisfy that
  ordering — verified: the test fails in 3s (no hang) against a res.text()
  proxy and passes against the piped one. The existing SSE test used
  inject(), which collects the whole body and so passes either way.

- agent-chat.smoke.test.ts: a live smoke that posts through mcplocal on
  localhost:3200 (the path `mcpctl chat` actually takes — every other chat
  smoke uses --direct and bypasses the proxy entirely) and asserts delta
  frames arrive spread across the generation window, not in one burst at
  stream end. Uses its own agent: the shared smoke agent pins replies to a
  single token, too short to tell live streaming from a buffer dump.

Also settles the strict-boolean-expressions lint on the auth-header check
the streaming split touched.

Local: workspace 2546 passed, proxy suite 10/10, smoke file loads + self-skips.

/**
* Regression cover for the 30s proxy timeout that made `mcpctl chat` fail with
* a misleading "Cannot reach mcpd daemon" 503 while mcpd was answering
* /healthz in 32ms.
*
* Three separate defects are pinned here:
* 1. chat routes inherited the 30s CRUD budget, so any turn longer than 30s
* failed — and an agent turn is a tool-use loop that routinely exceeds it;
* 2. a timeout was reported as a connection failure, sending diagnosis after
* a network fault that did not exist;
* 3. SSE was buffered through res.text(), so streaming never reached the
* client even when the turn finished in time.
