fix: Accept WASM limitations - guide users to explicit binary path

## Root Cause Discovery
Research revealed that Rust compiled to WebAssembly (wasm32) cannot:
- Use std::env::consts::OS to detect platform (always returns "wasm32")
- Reliably use filesystem exists() checks (WASM sandbox blocks it)
- Access host platform information at runtime

This makes runtime platform detection impossible in WASM.

## Solution
Accept the limitations and provide excellent error guidance:
1. Try common paths in a reasonable order (Linux first, then macOS)
2. When the first path fails (which it will), Zed shows clear error
3. Error message guides users to set explicit gitea_mcp_binary_path
4. Includes platform-specific examples for quick setup

## New Approach
- Try paths in order: /usr/local/bin, /usr/bin, home paths, /opt/homebrew
- If none work, return helpful error with configuration examples
- Users on macOS see: brew install + gitea_mcp_binary_path example
- Users on Linux see: download/build instructions
- Option to use Docker mentioned

## Why This Works
- Simple and transparent - users know exactly what to do
- No more mysterious WASM sandbox issues
- Better error messages than cryptic execution failures
- Works around fundamental WASM limitations

## Testing
- ✅ Linux users: See clear error, follow Linux example
- ✅ macOS users: See clear error, follow macOS example
- ✅ Everyone: Can use Docker mode as alternative
