Fix TCP server response handling and add pandas-stubs

- Always send a response (even empty) to prevent client timeouts
- Add pandas-stubs to dev dependencies for mypy type checking
- Server now sends newline-terminated response for all commands

This fixes the mypy CI failure. Integration test failures still need
investigation - likely due to event loop blocking when mixing sync/async.
