SDK rejects valid SSE comments, causing initialization timeout with Tavily MCP remote server

The Java MCP SDK throws an McpError: Invalid SSE response when receiving SSE comment lines (lines starting with :), which are valid per the SSE specification. This causes initialization failures with MCP servers that send keep-alive or ping comments.

Environment
SDK Version: Java SDK (latest)
Protocol Version: 2025-03-26
Java Version: 17+
Affected Server: Tavily MCP Server (https://mcp.tavily.com/mcp/)

Steps to Reproduce:

String url = "https://mcp.tavily.com/mcp/";

McpClientTransport transport = HttpClientStreamableHttpTransport.builder(url).build();

SyncSpec clientBuilder = McpClient.sync(transport);
McpSyncClient client = clientBuilder.build();

// This will fail during initialization
client.initialize();

Symptoms
Initial Symptom (with default/short timeout)
The initialization hangs and eventually times out:

_INFO io.modelcontextprotocol.client.LifecycleInitializer -- Server response with Protocol: 2025-03-26, Capabilities: ServerCapabilities[...], Info: Implementation[name=tavily-mcp, title=null, version=1.17.0] and Instructions null

WARN io.modelcontextprotocol.client.LifecycleInitializer -- Failed to initialize

java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException: Did not observe any item or terminal signal within 3000ms in 'map' (and no fallback has been configured)_

This timeout occurs because the SSE parsing is failing silently in the background, preventing the initialization from completing.
Root Cause Revealed (with increased timeout ~300 seconds)
When the timeout is increased significantly, the actual error becomes visible:

WARN io.modelcontextprotocol.client.LifecycleInitializer -- Handling exception

io.modelcontextprotocol.spec.McpError: Invalid SSE response. Status code: 200 Line: : ping - 2025-11-20 17:27:30.586492+00:00
at io.modelcontextprotocol.client.transport.ResponseSubscribers$SseLineSubscriber.hookOnNext(ResponseSubscribers.java:173)

从 ResponseSubscribers.java 中的 SseLineSubscriber.hookOnNext 开始，然后使用 Tavily MCP server 和所示的传输设置复现初始化过程。当以 ':' 开头的有效 SSE 注释行不再导致无效响应失败，并且 client.initialize() 正常完成时，即表示完成。
