Include HTTP headers in the ServerCallContext to provide handlers with easy access to critical request metadata. This change maintains consistency with the existing design pattern of using the call context for request-specific data and simplifies handler implementation by making headers readily available via `context.state['headers']`.

Description
This PR enhances our A2A framework by adding HTTP headers to the
ServerCallContext, making them accessible viacontext.state['headers']. The call context is a key component of our request-handling system, designed to provide handlers with request-specific information—like user details and additional state—in a structured, modular way. This abstraction keeps our handlers clean and decoupled from the raw HTTP request.Why Add Headers to the Context?
state['auth']). Adding headers follows this established pattern, keeping our design cohesive.context.state['headers'], developers can work more efficiently and with fewer errors.Addressing Concerns:
This change makes our framework more intuitive and developer-friendly. I encourage the team to merge this PR to improve handler efficiency and maintain a consistent, modular architecture.
