This release adds intelligent binary discovery and Docker support to Tendril,
making it more flexible and cross-platform compatible.
## Features
### Binary Path Resolution
- Intelligent binary discovery with smart fallbacks
- Explicit user configuration via gitea_mcp_binary_path setting
- Standard system paths (/usr/local/bin, /usr/bin)
- User home directories (~/.local/bin, ~/.cargo/bin, ~/bin)
- Platform-specific paths (/opt/homebrew/bin on macOS M-series)
- System PATH environment variable search
- Robust WASM sandbox handling for filesystem checks
- Comprehensive error messages with troubleshooting guidance
- Removed hardcoded /usr/local/bin/gitea-mcp path
### Docker Support
- New use_docker configuration option for containerized deployment
- New docker_image configuration for custom images (default: gitea/gitea-mcp-server:latest)
- Automatic docker binary detection at /usr/bin/docker or other standard locations
- Proper gitea-mcp command-line flag formatting (-token, -t stdio, -host, -insecure)
- STDIO communication through Docker containers
### Cross-Platform Support
- Linux: Standard system and user paths
- macOS Intel: Same as Linux
- macOS M-series (ARM64): Optimized for /opt/homebrew/bin
- Windows: Program Files paths (code ready, untested)
- Proper PATH separator handling (: on Unix, ; on Windows)
