### Support opt-in staging releases without Mix and server-side tool selection

## Use case

We use Tidewave in an authenticated internal staging environment where non-developer teammates use Claude Code and Vision mode to record UI tutorials.

The desired environment split is:

- `dev`: full Tidewave tool set
- `staging`: a limited server-side tool set, such as browser tools only
- `prod`: no Tidewave dependency or plug

A consumer can already scope the dependency with `only: [:dev, :staging]`. However, `Tidewave.Application` currently starts the MCP supervisor only when t

### project_eval never reloads code in non-Phoenix projects (v0.9.0)

`Tidewave.MCP.Tools.Eval.eval_code/5` reloads before every evaluation, but only when a Phoenix endpoint is present:

Tidewave.call/2 sets phoenix_endpoint: conn.private[:phoenix_endpoint], which is nil for the non-Phoenix setup the README documents under "In non-Phoenix applications" (bandit + a mix tidewave alias). So that branch never runs, and the nod

before_send callback crashes with AlreadySentError on WebSocket upgrades

Description

When plug Tidewave is enabled and a request is upgraded to a WebSocket (via WebSockAdapter.upgrade/4 / Plug.Conn.upgrade_adapter/3), the before_send callback registered in Tidewave.call/2 crashes with Plug.Conn.AlreadySentError.

Root cause

In call/2, Tidewave registers a before_send that mutates response headers:

def call(conn, _opts) do
  conn
  |> validate!()
  |> Plug.Conn.register_before_send(fn conn ->
    conn
