[WIP] Fix binary naming for mcp server installation
Rename cmd/mcp to cmd/workflow-mcp-server for correct go install binary naming

Pull request overview
This PR renames the MCP server directory from cmd/mcp to cmd/workflow-mcp-server to ensure that go install produces a properly namespaced binary name. When using go install, the binary name is derived from the last path component, so cmd/mcp would create a generic mcp binary that could conflict with other MCP tools. The new name workflow-mcp-server is more descriptive and avoids namespace collisions.
Changes:
- Renamed directory from
cmd/mcp/tocmd/workflow-mcp-server/ - Updated all documentation references and build commands to use the new path
- Added
go installinstructions with the correct module path
