Kyle Carberry 0f86c4237e feat: add workspace MCP tool discovery and proxying for chat (#23680) ...

Coder's chat (chatd) can now discover and use MCP servers configured in
a workspace's `.mcp.json` file. This brings project-specific tooling
(GitHub, databases, docs servers, etc.) into the chat without any manual
configuration.

## How it works

The workspace agent reads `.mcp.json` from the workspace directory (same
format Claude Code uses), connects to the declared MCP servers —
spawning child processes for stdio servers and connecting over the
network for HTTP/SSE — and caches their tool lists. Two new agent HTTP
endpoints expose this:

- `GET /api/v0/mcp/tools` returns the cached tool list (supports
`?refresh=true`)
- `POST /api/v0/mcp/call-tool` proxies calls to the correct server

On each chat turn, chatd calls `ListMCPTools` through the existing
`AgentConn` tailnet connection, wraps each tool as a
`fantasy.AgentTool`, and adds them to the LLM's tool set alongside
built-in and admin-configured MCP tools. Tool names are prefixed with
the server name (`github__create_issue`) to avoid collisions.

Failed server connections are logged and skipped — they never block the
agent or break the chat. Child stdio processes are terminated on agent
shutdown.
