fix(pi): correct the model's tool context after a project switch
Switching projects twice left the agent believing it had lost MCP access
entirely: it kept calling the previous project's tool names, got
"Tool mc_<old>_begin_session not found", and concluded no MCP tools existed.

Root cause is a pi constraint, not a bug in the switch. pi has no way to
unregister a tool — `registerTool` only ever does `extension.tools.set(name)`
— so the previous project's `mc_*` tools stay registered and merely go
inactive. `setActiveTools` correctly drops them from the live set, but the
conversation still contains the old project's tool listing, so the model
keeps calling names that now answer "not found".

Nothing was telling the model the tool set had changed. Now the switch
injects a custom message naming the active project, stating that previously
listed mcpctl tool names are dead, and listing what is actually callable.
Custom messages are converted to user-role messages by `convertToLlm`, so
they do reach the model (unlike `appendEntry`, which is explicitly excluded
from context). `display: false` keeps it out of the transcript — the
notification is what the human reads.

The gate is also called out explicitly, in both the notification and the
injected message. A freshly switched project gets a new mcp-session-id and is
therefore gated again, so "1 tool(s) ready" is correct but reads like a
failure; it now says which begin_session call unlocks the rest.

`toolChangeAnnouncement` is exported and unit-tested rather than left as
wording only reachable through a TUI.
