Resolve relative Python scripts when cwd is omitted.
When a stdio config contains args=["server.py"] without cwd, _resolve_mcp_server_config returns before resolving the script path. Resolve the script against an explicit base directory, or reject the configuration, before returning. Add a test for this case.

Preserve the resolved cwd for Windows stdio servers.
On Windows, _connect_stdio sets cwd = None for every non-None cwd. A resolved configuration without a .py argument therefore starts in the parent process directory. Preserve valid resolved paths and handle invalid paths with the existing fallback contract. Add a regression test.

Fixes #7366. Removes legacy \os.name == 'nt'\ branch that set \cwd=None\ for MCP servers, forcing them to inherit the Hive process root directory and causing agent documents to spill into the root project folder. Instead, this uses an absolute resolved path for the \cwd\ universally across all platforms, which properly avoids WinError 267.
