Use the correct MCP port in the readiness example.

The example pairs http://localhost:3000 with http://localhost:3001/mcp. The CLI contract uses the actual development-server port plus DEV_MCP_PORT_OFFSET, so the default MCP URL is http://localhost:3002/mcp. An agent that copies this example cannot connect.

Based on learnings, the MCP port derives from the actual bound port plus DEV_MCP_PORT_OFFSET. The supplied documentation also uses port 3002 for an app on port 3000.

Proposed fix 
-  ✓ MCP ready at http://localhost:3001/mcp
+  ✓ MCP ready at http://localhost:3002/mcp

In `@cli/STYLE_GUIDE.md` around lines 286 - 287, Update the readiness example in
STYLE_GUIDE.md so the MCP URL uses port 3002, matching the development server
port 3000 plus DEV_MCP_PORT_OFFSET.

P1 Badge Match localhost URLs with the listener's address family

On systems where localhost resolves only or preferentially to ::1, the newly printed and automatically opened URL cannot reach this server because src/server/dev-server/server.ts binds the dev listener specifically to 127.0.0.1. This makes the default veryfront dev flow fail on those resolver configurations; either bind both address families or print an address guaranteed to match the IPv4 listener.

Point users to the printed MCP URL.

The fixed DEFAULT_DEV_MCP_PORT example is valid only when the requested development port remains available. cli/commands/dev/command.ts can select a later bound port and serve MCP at boundPort + 2, so this example can configure Claude Code with the wrong endpoint. Label this as the default-port example and tell users to copy the URL printed by veryfront dev.

Based on learnings: startDevServerOnFreePort can choose a later port, so MCP documentation must use the printed endpoint.

In `@cli/commands/mcp/command-help.ts` at line 22, Update the MCP configuration
help text in command-help.ts to label the DEFAULT_DEV_MCP_PORT URL as the
default-port example, and instruct users to copy the actual MCP URL printed by
the veryfront dev command because the server may bind to a later available port.

P2 Badge Route project debug requests through a resolvable host

When vf_get_debug_context receives the optional project argument, this server-side fetch now targets <project>.localhost. Browser handling of .localhost subdomains does not guarantee that the process DNS resolver supports them; on the Linux resolver inspected here, these names return no address, so the tool reports a fetch failure even while the dev server is reachable. Fetch through localhost or 127.0.0.1 while preserving the project host used for routing.
