test: add comprehensive unit tests for tool metadata feature

Add tests covering:
- Adding metadata via ToolManager.add_tool()
- Adding metadata via FastMCP.tool() decorator
- Metadata preservation in Tool objects
- Metadata inclusion in MCPTool when listing tools
- Edge cases (None, empty dict, complex nested structures)
- Integration with tool annotations

All tests verify that the meta parameter correctly flows through
the tool registration and listing pipeline.
