Implementation of Custom Tool in MCP

[souvikghosh04]

Why make this change?

• Closes on - Implement functionality for Custom Tool in MCP #2877

What is this change?

This pull request introduces a new system for dynamically generating and registering custom MCP tools based on stored procedure entity configurations in the runtime configuration. The main changes are the implementation of the DynamicCustomTool class, a factory to create these tools from configuration, and the necessary service registration logic to ensure these custom tools are available at runtime.

Dynamic custom MCP tool support:

• Added the DynamicCustomTool class, which implements IMcpTool and provides logic for generating tool metadata, validating configuration, handling authorization, executing the underlying stored procedure, and formatting the response. This enables each stored procedure entity with custom-tool enabled to be exposed as a dedicated MCP tool.
• Introduced the CustomMcpToolFactory class, which scans the runtime configuration for stored procedure entities marked with custom-tool enabled and creates corresponding DynamicCustomTool instances.

Dependency injection and service registration:

• Updated the MCP server startup (AddDabMcpServer) to register custom tools generated from configuration by calling a new RegisterCustomTools method after auto-discovering static tools.
• Modified the RegisterAllMcpTools method to exclude DynamicCustomTool from auto-discovery (since these are created dynamically per configuration) and added the RegisterCustomTools method to register each generated custom tool as a singleton service.

How was this tested?

• Unit Tests
• Manual Tests using Insomnia and VS code GHCP chat
