This adds HTTP server mode to the GitHub MCP Server, enabling multi-client support with "bring your own token" OAuth functionality. This is useful for enterprise scenarios where a single MCP server instance handles multiple external clients, each authenticating with their own credentials. Key changes: - Add `http` command to start HTTP server on configurable port (default 8080) - Support per-request OAuth tokens via Authorization header - Fall back to GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN env var if no header provided - Modify client factories to extract token from request context - Add comprehensive HTTP server documentation to README This implementation is inspired by PR github#888 by @Dreadnoth, updated to work with the current codebase architecture and dependencies.

Official GH MCP Server supports only STDIO. This commit allows you to run the GH MCP as server and covers more enterprise use-cases (ie. handling multiple external clients with one instance)
