Remote MCP support

Remote MCP support.

Currently, Zed requires the command property at setting.json
But remote mcp just needs url(modelcontextprotocol ver.) or httpUrl(gemini-cli ver.)

This would be huge for organizational adoption of Zed, where centralized MCP servers can be hosted and leveraged. Would love to see this get added <3

I am unable to use the remote version of GitHub MCP Server in Zed. The Local version requires me to use a PAT, which is not very easy to obtain for organization repositories. The remote version is as easy as logging in with my GitHub account to gain access to organization repositories.

A workaround is to use mcp-remote. Here's how I added the Microsoft Learn server:

{
  "microsoft.docs.mcp": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": [
      "-y",
      "mcp-remote",
      "https://learn.microsoft.com/api/mcp"
    ]
  }
}
