feat(client): add client tool output schema validation and caching (#302)

- Add JSON schema validation for tool call results against output schemas
- Implement automatic tool output schema caching during initialization
- Add `enableCallToolSchemaCaching` configuration option to enable/disable
  schema caching
- Add `JsonSchemaValidator` integration to McpClient builder APIs
- Introduce post-initialization hook mechanism for performing operations
  after successful client initialization
- Cache tool output schemas during `listTools` operations when caching
  is enabled
- Validate tool results against cached schemas in `callTool` operations
- Return error CallToolResult when validation fails
- Add test coverage
- Convert validateToolResult from Mono to synchronous method
- Throw IllegalArgumentException on validation errors
