An asynchronous sampling or elicitation handler can complete without a value.
The client then sends no JSON-RPC response, leaving the server blocked until
its request timeout. The client now returns internal error -32603 with the
original request ID.

Motivation and Context

JSON-RPC requires one response for every request with an ID. This converts an
empty client handler completion into an explicit error while preserving normal
results and handler failures.

Closes #1124

The equivalent server-side paths are covered by
#1099.

How Has This Been Tested?

The regression fails on clean main, passes with this change, and the live MCP
2025-11-25 client elicitation scenario still passes.
