Dynamic MCP Server Management

[sincebyte]

Problem
All MCP servers load at startup and stay active, causing:

1. Wasted context - Tool descriptions take up valuable token space
2. Tool confusion - LLM may trigger irrelevant tools

Solution
Add chat commands to dynamically load/unload MCP servers:

//mcp load <name>      # Start server & add its tools

unload , we could use /clear

Note: I am currently working on adding an MCP Server Manager to better handle how aider handles resources (eg networking, establishing connections) with MCPs. The manager can be added to have the ability to connect/disconnect servers, so it should be easier to implement this once this is in

Just a small update, a PR that allows users to enable/disable MCPs via the config was merged: #393

it doens't implement this feature request but its a baby step in the right direction. Working in adding this in, but lacking time
