fix(mcp): drop cross-server duplicate bound tool names instead of silently shadowing (#8135)
Server-prefixed tool names are not unique across servers: server 'a'
exposing 'b_x' and server 'a_b' exposing 'x' both bind as 'a_b_x'. The
flatten step forwarded both declarations to the model, where the provider
silently keeps only one and the other server's tool becomes unreachable
with no diagnostic.

Deduplicate by bound name in enabled-server declaration order and drop
later duplicates with a warning.

"""Load-boundary validation of MCP tool names (prompt-injection defense).
A hostile/compromised MCP server advertises tool names verbatim. Deferred
(``tool_search``) MCP tools are withheld from binding, so the provider's
function-name validation never runs on their names — the raw name only ever
lives in the system-prompt string. A crafted name (newlines, markdown, angle
brackets) would otherwise forge framework prompt structure there. ``get_mcp_tools``
drops any tool whose name is not a valid identifier at the load boundary, before
it can enter the deferred catalog or render into the prompt. Render-time
``html.escape`` in ``tool_search.py`` remains as defense-in-depth.
