McpServer: Add -mcp-dump-tools to export the tool list

Write a qdoc table of every registered MCP tool (name and description),
sorted by name, to a file and quit. Hooked to coreOpened so all plugins
have registered their tools first. The documentation build uses this to
keep an always-current reference of the available tools.

McpServer: Add debugger collapse and expanded-inames tools

Add debugger_collapse_all_children and debugger_expanded_inames to
drive and observe the Locals and Expressions view expansion state,
e.g. to verify recursive collapsing of a variable subtree.

McpServer: Add configure_run_config tool

Add a tool to select an existing run configuration as the active one
and/or set its executable. This is needed to drive run configurations
that carry a manually set executable, such as the bare-metal "Custom
Executable" configuration, so that start_debug then exercises that run
configuration's own launch path.

The lookup refuses an ambiguous match instead of taking the first one:
every run configuration a factory creates shares its type id, so an id
alone does not identify one.

Core: Give the secret line edit a name

Utils: Name a path chooser after the setting it edits

A settings page tends to hold several, and they were all called the same,
which also left their line edits sharing one name.

McpServer: Let a driven session be paced for a recording

The tools deliver synthetic events, which is what makes them reliable, but
it also means nothing moves: text appears at once and no pointer travels to
what is clicked, so a screen capture of a driven session does not look like
anyone using the IDE.

set_demo_pace slows the widget tools down: the pointer glides to its target,
a button shows as held, and text arrives character by character, with the
waits letting the interface repaint in between. Zero delays, the default,
keep the immediate behaviour tests want.

Add a -no-banners option

Every notification banner covers part of the interface, which is in the
way of a screenshot or a screen recording. The option keeps them all
away for the session.

Note that this includes the ones that offer something, such as linking
with an installed Qt, so a walkthrough that means to use those cannot
have it.

McpServer: Move the pointer for a row click as well

A click on a row is half of walking through the interface, and it was the
one click that left the pointer where it was. Also name the settings
category list, which otherwise can only be reached as "some QListView" -
and on the Kits page that matches the wrong view.

McpServer: Click a tab, and say what has no visible cause

Two things a recording of a driven session needs. A tab is not a widget of
its own, so click_tab reaches one by the text on it - which is also the only
way to the pages of a settings category. And show_caption puts a line over
the window for a moment, for the steps that have no visible trigger at all:
a mode being switched or a run being started through a tool otherwise just
happens, with nothing on screen to account for it.

McpServer: Click the way a user does

click_widget took a shortcut for buttons and called click() on them, which
only emits clicked(). A widget is free to act on the mouse itself, and Qt
Creator's own buttons do: the settings mode connects its Apply to a signal
the button emits from its mouse handler, so every Apply arrived as a no-op -
the page kept its changes and looked permanently unapplied, which sent me
looking for a defect in the settings pages that was not there.

Send press and release instead, as a click does. Also add pointer_position,
which reports where the pointer is: it is how such a thing gets noticed
rather than assumed.

Debugger: Add the WatchHandler::collapseAllChildren() the MCP tool calls

The debugger_collapse_all_children tool calls it, but nothing declared
it, so the plugin does not compile.

It does what the tool says it does: clears the expanded state of every
descendant, not only of the first level, so that expanding the variable
again shows its subtree collapsed all the way down. The context menu
entry of the same name keeps its own first-level behavior.

Amends 956efc2e78359c66c1a4d1a67dd4c9b1e37b0e30.
