Oleg Isonen af29a0cef7 fix: Improve shared Slot selector guidance for MCP agents (#5910)
## What changed

- documents `extract-slot.instanceSelector` as a leaf-to-root occurrence
path
- provides valid examples for sections directly under Body and nested in
a page wrapper
- exposes those examples through `meta.get_more_tools`
- makes invalid parent ordering errors explain how to recover using
`list-instances` IDs and `parentId`
- regenerates the public runtime schema with the selector contract

## Why

Agents could discover `extract-slot` but could not determine the
selector ordering expected by the runtime. Plausible selectors failed
with a generic direct-parent error, and focused MCP discovery returned
no working example.

## User impact

Agents can now reliably convert existing sections into shared Slots
without guessing the Navigator path format. Invalid selectors return
enough context to correct the call instead of repeatedly probing the
project.

## Verification

- project-build slot and MCP tests: 108 passed
- protocol operation docs and operation tests: 17 passed
- CLI MCP tests: 35 passed
- project-build, protocol, and CLI typechecks
- repository lint
- package-boundary check
- generated API and documentation checks

Protocol

@webstudio-is/protocol owns Webstudio data exchange protocols.

The project bundle is the external export/import artifact used by sync, local .webstudio/data.json, project import, transferred asset files, and prebuild. This package owns the assembled bundle schemas, transfer RPC payloads, and bundle compatibility/version helpers.

Domain models such as pages, assets, and serialized builds remain owned by their domain packages and are composed here through schema-only entrypoints. Do not copy those schemas into this package.

Terminology

Project bundle is the authoritative external project artifact. It is used by sync, .webstudio/data.json, project import, transferred asset files, and prebuild.

Data envelope is a serialized single-key object whose key is a versioned Webstudio marker, for example { "@webstudio/instance/v0.1": data }. The envelope identifies the payload version and lets consumers detect malformed Webstudio-owned data before falling back to other formats.

Transfer data is the domain payload inside a data envelope. Examples include InstanceTransferData, InstancesTransferData, and PageTransferData. Transfer data is portable and detached from a project; insertion/import remaps ids and merges it into authoritative project state. Runtime-owned transfer formats live in @webstudio-is/project-build/transfer.

Clipboard data is a UI transport concern. Builder copy/paste may serialize transfer data into a data envelope and place it on the browser clipboard, but runtime and protocol code should name the reusable format as data envelope or transfer data, not clipboard.
