fix: add legacy flat _meta key for MCP App rendering in Claude (#585)

Claude.ai reads the flat `_meta["ui/resourceUri"]` key to discover UI apps,
not the nested `_meta.ui.resourceUri`. Without the flat key, tools like
n8n_health_check and n8n_list_workflows showed as collapsed accordions
instead of rendering rich UI. Now sets both keys, matching the behavior
of the official registerAppTool helper from @modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps.
