docs: add tool visibility and restructure _meta.ui (#131)
* docs: add tool visibility and restructure _meta.ui

- Restructure tool metadata: `_meta["ui/resourceUri"]` → `_meta.ui.resourceUri`
- Add `visibility` array field: ["model"], ["apps"], or ["model", "apps"]
- Default ["model"] preserves standard MCP behavior
- ["apps"] enables widget-only tools hidden from agent
- Add McpUiToolMeta interface for type safety
- Add Design Decision #4 explaining approach vs OpenAI's two-field model

* feat: tool visibility and nested _meta.ui format

- Rename visibility "apps" → "app" in McpUiToolVisibility type
- Add _meta.ui.resourceUri nested format (deprecate flat format)
- Add getToolUiResourceUri() utility with backward compatibility
- Add visibility demo to system-monitor-server:
  - get-system-stats: visibility ["model"] with resourceUri
  - refresh-stats: visibility ["app"] (app-only polling)
- Update all example servers to use new _meta.ui format
- Add 11 unit tests for getToolUiResourceUri()

* chore: regenerate schemas with updated dependencies

* feat: export McpUiToolMeta type and add type annotations

- Export McpUiToolMeta and McpUiToolVisibility types from types.ts
- Export corresponding Zod schemas (McpUiToolMetaSchema, McpUiToolVisibilitySchema)
- Add `as McpUiToolMeta` type annotations to all example servers
- Update docs/quickstart.md with proper typing

Ensures type safety for `_meta.ui` tool metadata across the codebase.

* feat: add server helpers and optional connect() transport

Add `src/server/` with convenience functions for registering MCP App tools
and resources:

- `registerAppTool(server, name, config, handler)`
- `registerAppResource(server, name, uri, config, callback)`

The `transport` parameter in `App.connect()` is now optional, defaulting to
`PostMessageTransport(window.parent)`.

* Update src/server/index.ts

* feat: update McpUiAppToolConfig to support both _meta.ui and flat formats

* refactor: simplify server helper imports

* docs: add deprecation notice and improve resourceUri documentation

* feat: add backward compat normalization in registerAppTool

- If _meta.ui.resourceUri is set, also set legacy flat key
- If legacy flat key is set, also set _meta.ui.resourceUri
- Preserves existing visibility when merging
- Does not overwrite if both formats already set

* refactor: avoid mutating config arg in registerAppTool

* style: format with prettier
