Subject: [PATCH] fix(responses-api): fix whitespace token filter and MCP
 server URL construction

- Drop the delta.trim() whitespace filter that was silently swallowing spaces
  and newlines during streaming, causing words to concatenate and paragraphs
  to collapse. Only skip truly empty strings (delta.length > 0).
- Use proxyBaseUrl for MCP server_url construction instead of the hardcoded
  relative path "litellm_proxy/mcp", so non-root deployments route correctly.
