@copilot the testmcp project should not be part of the code compiled into the tool -- so move the mcpextract.csproj and associated folders into an src/ folder, and update the pipelines to match

Completed the reorganization. The main tool is now in src/ and TestMcp project is separate at root level. Updated GitHub workflows to build from the new location. Commit: 1445434

Fixed the build pipeline error. Updated dotnet.yml workflow to reference the correct project path src/McpExtract.csproj and updated .NET version to 8.0 to match the project configuration. All build steps now work correctly. Commit: a426cf3
