Support file-based MCP server configuration (mcp.json) #127

@Philipp0205

Description

@Philipp0205

Add support for discovering MCP server configurations from mcp.json files, same as in VSCode and GitHub Copilot CLI and probably intelliJ (not tested)

Supported locations (lowest to highest priority):

  1. Global: ~/.config/github-copilot/eclipse/mcp.json (Linux/macOS) / %APPDATA%\github-copilot\eclipse\mcp.json (Windows)
  2. Project: <project>/.vscode/mcp.json
  3. Project: <project>/.github/copilot/mcp.json

Servers from all sources are merged. Manual preference configuration and extension-point contributions retain highest priority.
