feat: add environment-aware debugging to diagnostic tools

Enhanced health check and diagnostic tools with environment-specific
troubleshooting guidance based on telemetry analysis of 632K events
from 5,308 users.

Key improvements:
- Environment-aware debugging suggestions for http/stdio modes
- Docker-specific troubleshooting when IS_DOCKER=true
- Cloud platform detection (Railway, Render, Fly, Heroku, AWS, K8s, GCP, Azure)
- Platform-specific configuration paths (macOS, Windows, Linux)
- MCP_MODE and platform tracking in telemetry events
- Comprehensive integration tests for environment detection

Addresses 59% session abandonment by providing actionable, context-specific
next steps based on user's deployment environment.
