Eric Hare 81196ceabd fix: validate uploaded MCP servers config to close command-injection path (#13709)
* fix: validate uploaded MCP servers config to close command-injection path

The `_mcp_servers_<uid>.json` file-upload path stored the raw uploaded
bytes as the user's MCP servers config without validation. Those
`command`/`args` are later spawned via the MCP stdio transport, so an
authenticated user could upload a config with an arbitrary command and
have it executed on the server — bypassing the command allow-list that
the structured `/api/v2/mcp/servers` endpoints already enforce via
`MCPServerConfig` (CWE-77 / CWE-94).

This wires the same `MCPServerConfig` validation into the file-upload
branch: the uploaded JSON must be an object with an `mcpServers` map, and
every entry is validated against the allow-list before anything is
written to storage. The file is rewound so the subsequent save re-reads
the original bytes.

Adds a regression test asserting a disallowed command is rejected with
422 and nothing is persisted, and updates the existing replace test to
use an allow-listed command.

* [autofix.ci] apply automated fixes

* [autofix.ci] apply automated fixes (attempt 2/3)

* Update test_mcp_servers_file.py

* test: cover MCP config validator reject branches + close upload lock bypass

Address review on the MCP-config-upload validation fix:

- Enforce the MCP-servers lock on the /api/v2/files upload path. The
  structured /api/v2/mcp/servers endpoints 403 non-superuser writes when
  mcp_servers_locked is on, but the upload branch writes the same
  _mcp_servers_<uid>.json that get_server_list reads, so without the same
  guard a non-superuser could replace their MCP config while locked.
- Pin the validator's own reject branches: invalid-JSON (422) and a
  non-object 'mcpServers' value (422), neither persisting anything.
- Add lock-guard coverage: blocked for a locked non-superuser (403), still
  allowed for a superuser.

* test: update MCP upload replacement fixture
