Add machine-to-machine client authentication (#4583)
* Add M2M client credentials auth providers

Wrap the SDK's client_credentials and private_key_jwt OAuth providers as
FastMCP-idiomatic ClientCredentialsOAuthProvider and PrivateKeyJWTOAuthProvider,
enabling browser-free client authentication via Client(auth=...).

* Fix M2M token cache collision and explicit-scope drop

Namespace the token cache by client_id so distinct clients sharing one store don't overwrite each other's tokens; pin caller-supplied scopes so the token request keeps them; fix CodeQL URL-substring check in tests; drop unused logger.

* Preserve step-up scope union, scope-aware token cache, restore token expiry

Only pin the caller's explicit scopes on initial authorization, leaving the SDK's step-up scope union intact; namespace the token cache by requested scopes as well as client_id; restore persisted absolute expiry on init so an expired stored token is re-fetched.

* Skip expiry restore for non-expiring reloaded tokens

* Distinguish expires_in=0 from omitted when restoring expiry

* Scope step-up flag to the flow via ContextVar; runnable JWT signing example
