Add MCPB packaging and Claude Code plugin for pdf-server (#491)
* Add MCPB packaging and Claude Code plugin for pdf-server

Two distribution paths for the pdf-server:

1. **MCPB bundle** (Claude Desktop MCP Directory):
   - manifest.json: v0.3 manifest with tools, compatibility, privacy
   - .mcpbignore: excludes source/tests from bundle
   - icon.png: 64x64 PDF document icon

2. **Claude Code plugin** (plugin/):
   - .mcp.json: declares local stdio server via npx
   - commands: /pdf-research:read, /pdf-research:summarize
   - skills: pdf-reading skill for document navigation
   - Tested end-to-end: MCP server connects, all tools available

The plugin uses a local stdio MCP server pattern — the first known
instance in a knowledge-work plugin (all existing plugins use remote
HTTP connectors).

# Summarize PDF
Generate a structured summary of a PDF document.
## Instructions
1. If a PDF is already displayed, work with it
2. If user provides a new URL/path, call `display_pdf` first
3. Read through the document and produce:
- **Title and authors** (if academic paper)
- **Key findings** (3-5 bullet points)
- **Methodology** (brief summary)
- **Conclusions**
- **Relevance** — what makes this paper notable
## Notes
- For long documents, focus on abstract, introduction, and conclusion sections
- Ask the user which sections they care most about if the doc is very long
