Add project-aware chat startup defaults

Make repo-root chat startup native by letting MCP servers carry a default project source for workspace creation. When a chat host starts from a Git checkout, workspace_create can now omit seed_path and inherit the server startup source; explicit --project-path and clean-clone --repo-url/--repo-ref paths are supported as fallbacks.

Add project startup resolution and materialization, surface origin_kind/origin_ref in workspace_seed, update chat-host docs and the repro/fix smoke to use project-aware workspace creation, and switch dist-check to uv run pyro so verification stays stable after uv reinstalls.

Validated with uv lock, focused startup/server/CLI pytest coverage, UV_CACHE_DIR=.uv-cache make check, UV_CACHE_DIR=.uv-cache make dist-check, and real guest-backed smokes for both explicit project_path and bare repo-root auto-detection.

## Chat Host Quickstart
After the quickstart works, the intended next step is to connect a chat host.
Bare `pyro mcp serve` starts `workspace-core`, which is the default product
path.
From a repo root, bare `pyro mcp serve` starts `workspace-core`, auto-detects
the current Git checkout, and lets the first `workspace_create` omit
`seed_path`.
```bash
uvx --from pyro-mcp pyro mcp serve
```
If the host does not preserve the server working directory, use:
```bash
uvx --from pyro-mcp pyro mcp serve --project-path /abs/path/to/repo
```
If you are starting outside a local checkout, use a clean clone source:
```bash
uvx --from pyro-mcp pyro mcp serve --repo-url https://github.com/example/project.git
```
