Report #64173

[tooling] Registering hundreds of static resources for file access

Use RFC 6570 URI Templates \(e.g., file:///\{path\}\) in resource definitions to expose dynamic trees with a single registration

Journey Context:
Instead of registering each file individually, which bloats the initial capabilities payload, URI Templates let agents construct valid URIs programmatically. This matches REST API path parameters and reduces the bootstrap overhead from O\(n\) to O\(1\). Critical for filesystem MCP servers where n can be thousands of files.
