This updates the SSE client endpoint resolution logic for API-gateway and nested-route deployments.
Previously, sse_client used urljoin(url, sse.data) for endpoint events. If the public SSE URL included a gateway prefix and the server emitted an absolute endpoint path, Python treated the endpoint as origin-rooted and dropped the gateway prefix.
It intentionally keeps standard root-relative behavior for no-overlap absolute paths such as /messages, because those are ambiguous: the client cannot safely infer whether the endpoint should be rooted at the origin or under a gateway prefix. Server-side mount-prefix cases should continue to be handled through ASGI root_path.

Fixes #795.
Summary
This updates the SSE client endpoint resolution logic for API-gateway and nested-route deployments.
Previously, sse_client used urljoin(url, sse.data) for endpoint events. If the public SSE URL included a gateway prefix and the server emitted an absolute endpoint path, Python treated the endpoint as origin-rooted and dropped the gateway prefix.
For example:
previously resolved to:
The new resolver preserves the non-overlapping public prefix when the SSE URL path and endpoint path overlap:
It intentionally keeps standard root-relative behavior for no-overlap absolute paths such as /messages, because those are ambiguous: the client cannot safely infer whether the endpoint should be rooted at the origin or under a gateway prefix. Server-side mount-prefix cases should continue to be handled through ASGI root_path.
