Update dotnet-mcp-builder skill to ModelContextProtocol 2.x (#2487)

* Update dotnet-mcp-builder skill to ModelContextProtocol 2.x

Align the skill with the C# SDK 2.0.0 release and the MCP 2026-07-28
spec: stable line is now 2.x, HttpServerTransportOptions.Stateless
defaults to true, roots/sampling/MCP-channel logging are [Obsolete]
(MCP9005) with the multi-round-trip input_required pattern as the
replacement, discovery-first negotiation (server/discover) supersedes
the initialize handshake, Mcp-Method/Mcp-Name routable headers, raw
structuredContent for non-object results, required Tool.inputSchema,
and the new ModelContextProtocol.Extensions.Tasks and
ModelContextProtocol.Extensions.Apps packages (typed MCP Apps support
replacing the hand-rolled _meta/ui:// pattern on 1.x).

* Address Copilot review: Apps extension accuracy, header scope, capability ownership

- packages.md: the Apps package replaces the manual _meta wiring, not the
  ui:// resource; note the experimental MCPEXP003 diagnostic; label the
  1.x -> 2.0 list as highlights and add the OAuth/SSE runtime changes
  with a pointer to the full release notes.
- transport-http.md: Mcp-Method is on every POST, Mcp-Name only on named
  invocations (tools/call, prompts/get, resources/read) - do not require
  it globally at gateways.
- mcp-apps.md: current MIME type is text/html;profile=mcp-app (skybridge
  is a legacy draft value); document [McpAppUi] + WithMcpApps().
- server-features.md: roots/sampling are client capabilities, only
  logging sits on ServerCapabilities.

* Correct stateful HTTP guidance: 2026-07-28 has no HTTP sessions

Per the official SDK v2 elicitation docs, a server with Stateless=false
refuses the 2026-07-28 revision so dual-path clients fall back to an
initialize-capable revision; ElicitAsync cannot be used on 2026-07-28
Streamable HTTP at all. Reframe stateful HTTP as down-level
compatibility mode and document the multi-round-trip pattern
(InputRequiredException / InputRequest.ForElicitation, retry with
InputResponses -> ElicitResult) as the current-protocol way to ask
mid-tool, across SKILL.md, transport-http.md, and elicitation.md.

## Versions
As of 2026, the stable line is **1.x** (`1.2.0` is current at time of writing). The `0.x` line was preview and has breaking differences — if you find docs or blog posts referencing `0.4`/`0.6`, treat them as out of date.
As of mid-2026, the stable line is **2.x** (`2.0.0` is current at time of writing), aligned with the MCP 2026-07-28 spec. The `0.x` line was preview and has breaking differences — if you find docs or blog posts referencing `0.4`/`0.6`, treat them as out of date. The `1.x` line still compiles and interoperates, but predates the v2 changes (stateless-by-default HTTP, discovery-first negotiation, roots/sampling/logging deprecations, the Tasks/Apps extension packages) — prefer 2.x for new projects.
**Upgrading 1.x → 2.0 (highlights, not exhaustive):** stable v1.x APIs keep working; the deprecated capabilities (roots, sampling, logging) are now `[Obsolete]` with `MCP9005` warnings, experimental APIs moved (the 1.4.x Tasks surface → `ModelContextProtocol.Extensions.Tasks`), and several behaviors flipped (`HttpServerTransportOptions.Stateless` now defaults to `true`; non-object tool results emit raw `structuredContent` values; `Tool.inputSchema` is required on deserialization). OAuth also changed at runtime — `AuthorizationRedirectDelegate``ClientOAuthOptions.AuthorizationCallbackHandler`, RFC 9207 issuer validation, mandatory PKCE S256 in metadata, `application_type` in dynamic registration — and SSE transport failures now propagate the underlying `HttpRequestException`/`TimeoutException`. Before upgrading, read the full [v2.0.0 release notes](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/csharp-sdk/releases/tag/v2.0.0).
