fix: return inline errors for invalid prompt inputs

The MCP SDK validates prompt arguments before calling handlers. When
validation fails (e.g. unsupported language like "rust"), the SDK throws
McpError(-32602) with a raw JSON dump — poor UX for VS Code slash commands.

Server-side changes (server/src/prompts/workflow-prompts.ts):
- Add toPermissiveShape() to widen z.enum() to z.string() in registered
  schemas so the SDK never rejects user input at the protocol layer
- Add createSafePromptHandler() to wrap all 11 prompt handlers with:
  (1) strict Zod validation that returns user-friendly inline errors
  (2) exception recovery that catches handler crashes gracefully
- Add formatValidationError() to convert ZodError into actionable markdown
  with field names, received values, and valid options listed

Integration tests (extensions/vscode/test/suite/mcp-prompt-e2e.integration.test.ts):
- Expand from 4 to 15 e2e tests covering all prompts with file-path params
- Add test for invalid language returning inline error (not protocol error)
- Add test for path traversal detection
- Add tests for all-optional prompts with empty args

Unit tests (server/test/src/prompts/workflow-prompts.test.ts):
- Add 17 new tests for toPermissiveShape, formatValidationError,
  createSafePromptHandler, and handler-level invalid argument handling
- Update schema-to-registration consistency tests for permissive shapes
