fix(mcp): surface tools/list 401 auth failures as a challenge on single-server routes (#31921)
A 401 while listing tools (a missing or expired per-user OAuth token, or an
upstream 401 for any auth_type) was swallowed to an empty tool list, so a
single-server client got a 200 with no tools and no WWW-Authenticate challenge
instead of a 401 it could re-authenticate against. Only oauth pass-through and
delegate-to-upstream oauth2 servers surfaced it; every other auth_type, and the
missing-token case for all of them, masked it.

The surface-vs-absorb decision now keys on the route, not the auth_type. An
upstream 401 in _fetch_tools_with_timeout becomes an MCPUpstreamAuthError
regardless of auth_type, and the per-user OAuth challenge raised during client
creation (a bare HTTPException 401 carrying a WWW-Authenticate header) is
converted to the same type in _get_tools_from_server. The challenge is scoped
to 401: a 403 (authenticated but forbidden, e.g. insufficient scope) is not a
re-auth signal and degrades to an empty list like any other non-auth error, and
the stdio-allowlist 403 (no challenge header) stays absorbed. The existing
routing then does the right thing: single-server routes turn the error into a
401 + WWW-Authenticate, while the multi-server aggregator absorbs it to an empty
list so one unauthenticated server does not fail the whole listing.

On the UI tools page, an OBO (per-user authorization_code) server now shows the
Authorize gate when the list call returns 401, not only when no credential row
exists. The backend already refreshes a still-refreshable token on the list
call, so a 401 means there is no valid token and none could be minted (expired
with no usable refresh token), which is exactly when the user must reauthorize.
