Description

Testing #329614

Add a note/info in the MCP Servers page in `Agent Customizations` to indicate to the user why mcp server right click options are grayed out. I was confused till i re-read the TPI and played around with the managedSettions.json.

Research direction

Start at the MCP Servers page in Agent Customizations and inspect how strictPluginOnlyCustomization from managedSettings.json causes workspace plugin right-click options to be grayed out. Done means the page displays a clear note or info explaining why those options are unavailable.
