kami 95ae900a58 Talk MCP: a client for external tool servers (#251)
docs/plans/06-mcp-support.md asks for the host direction — Maven connects OUT
to MCP servers and consumes what they offer. This is the client half: the
protocol, the transports, the connection manager, the config block. Nothing is
wired into a turn yet, and nothing here exposes Maven's own capabilities to an
outside caller.

internal/mcp:
  - hand-rolled JSON-RPC 2.0 (the wire format is four fields, and the repo
    vendors its deps, so a library would cost more than it saves);
  - two transports: a stdio subprocess on this box, and streamable HTTP, which
    accepts a plain JSON reply or an SSE frame because servers disagree about
    which they send;
  - Client: initialize handshake, tools/list, tools/call, resources/list,
    resources/read. Text content only — everything downstream is a sentence;
  - Manager: lazy dial, per-server failure that never blocks boot or the other
    servers, backoff reconnect, Status for a web surface, graceful Close;
  - the allowlist encoding: a discovered tool becomes the store row
    "vikunja_list_tasks" with cmd ["mcp","vikunja","list_tasks"], scope
    "mcp:vikunja". No new column, no migration, and ProposeTool, EnableTool,
    the act matcher and the confirm turn all keep working untouched.

Constraints held, in code rather than in prose:
  - OFF unless configured, and a server is dark until "enabled": true.
  - A url server goes through internal/webfetch, so the SSRF guard, the size
    cap, the redirect cap and the per-host rate limit apply. Reaching loopback
    needs allow_private on THAT server, and each server gets its own fetcher so
    one loopback exemption cannot become a hole for a public endpoint.
  - readOnlyHint decides destructive: no hint means "assume it mutates", which
    will route the call through the existing confirm turn. Guessing wrong in
    that direction only costs a question.
  - The catalogue stays small on purpose — allow_tools, and max_tools=12 per
    server. The resident model is a 1.7B with a 4096-token context; a tool name
    it half-remembers is a wrong act.
  - Only the tool name and the router's arguments are sent. There is no API
    here through which a note, a fact or the persona block could travel.

webfetch grows Post (JSON-RPC cannot be a GET) and surfaces response headers
for Mcp-Session-Id. It shares Get's guards exactly: a body buys a caller
nothing, a POST to the LAN is refused for the same reason a GET is.

Verified against the real Vikunja MCP server on homesrv
(http://localhost:9100/mcp): handshake, three discovered tools with update_task
correctly NOT read-only, a live list_projects call, a tool excluded by
allow_tools refused, and the same server refused outright once allow_private
was dropped. Tests cover both transports (the stdio one against a real
subprocess), SSE and JSON framing, session echo, reconnect, and the config
validation.

//
// which is why there is no new column and no migration: the store, the /tools
// page, ProposeTool, EnableTool, DisableTool, the act matcher and the confirm
// turn all keep working unchanged. The executor is the only place that has to
// know the difference, and it is one branch on Cmd[0].
