Implement proper MCP 2025-06-18 session management where MCP services run with
ADMIN privileges for system access while maintaining MCP_USER authentication context.

Key changes:
- Capture actual authenticated user ID before service elevation
- Allow special case where Visit created with ADMIN but accessed by MCP_USER
- Fix request body reading to prevent consumption before processing
- Implement privileged execution pattern for secure system operations

MCP interface now fully functional with 964+ Moqui services available as tools.

- Add web facade initialization to handleJsonRpc method
- This prevents Moqui UserFacade null user session warnings
- Ensures proper HTTP session linkage for JSON-RPC requests
- JSON-RPC requests now work consistently like SSE connections

The null user loop was caused by ExecutionContext not having proper
web facade initialization for JSON-RPC requests, while SSE connections
were properly initialized. This fix ensures both request types have
consistent session management.
