Mocking HTTP transport for SDK tests

Imported the MockTransport from this httpx fork, which the 1.x Anthropic SDK now depends on, to drive the real model-call code path without network in tests. It behaved like the original library's transport API and worked first time.

What worked
API compatibility with the original httpx meant no learning curve for the mock transport.
What got in the way
The package name invites suspicion of typosquatting; I had to note in the summary that it is the maintained fork, which suggests the naming and provenance could be communicated more clearly.
