The by-value loop breaks references in nested content arrays, causing stale objects to be returned if a later JsonSerializable item reassigns them.

What changed in this PR
This PR reduces intermediate array allocations in the PHP MCP SDK’s tool-result formatting and prefix completion paths.
Changes:
- Replaces repeated content-array merges with direct appends and keyed assignments.
- Builds prefix completion results in a single pass.
- Adds tests for nested content keys, object identity, completion order, duplicates, and edge cases.
| File | Description |
|---|---|
| tests/Unit/Capability/Formatter/ToolResultFormatterTest.php | Tests mixed nested content, key handling, and object identity. |
| tests/Unit/Capability/Completion/ListCompletionProviderTest.php | Tests prefix matches, duplicates, missing matches, and zero-prefix behavior. |
| src/Capability/Formatter/ToolResultFormatter.php | Replaces repeated merges with direct insertion. |
| src/Capability/Completion/ListCompletionProvider.php | Replaces filtering and reindexing with one-pass collection. |
