fix(mcp): sanitize and cap rendered MCP tool param hints (#2682)

+"""Hardening for issue #2660 — `_format_mcp_params` renders untrusted MCP tool
+schemas into the agent prompt (added in #2509/#2529). MCP servers are
+third-party, so field names and parameter counts are untrusted: names/types must
+be sanitized (no injected newlines / runaway length) and the rendered set must be
+bounded. These tests pin that hardening AND that normal schemas are unchanged.
