feat: gstack-gbrain-mcp-verify helper for remote MCP probe

Probes a remote gbrain MCP endpoint with bearer auth. POSTs initialize, classifies failures into NETWORK / AUTH / MALFORMED with one-line remediation hints, and runs a tools/list capability probe to detect sources_add MCP support (forward-compat for when gbrain ships URL ingest). Token consumed from GBRAIN_MCP_TOKEN env, never argv. Required to set both 'application/json' AND 'text/event-stream' in Accept; that gotcha costs 10 minutes of debugging when missed (regression-tested). Live-verified against wintermute (gbrain v0.27.1). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

+/**
+ * gstack-gbrain-mcp-verify — error-classification tests with a mocked curl.
+ *
+ * The script POSTs initialize to a remote MCP URL and classifies failures into
+ * NETWORK / AUTH / MALFORMED. Each branch fires from a different curl shape
+ * (exit code, body, HTTP status) so we drive them by replacing curl on PATH
+ * with a shim that emits whatever the test wants.
+ *
+ * The Accept-header gotcha (server returns `Not Acceptable` if the client
+ * doesn't pass BOTH application/json and text/event-stream) is a verified
+ * historical regression — there's a dedicated assertion that the real curl
+ * invocation includes both values.
