AX-2162: Document VS Code install, verify, and recovery (#61)

* AX-2162 - Align VS Code README with shared install verify recovery flow

Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

* AX-2162 - Keep VS Code install docs self-contained

Inline verify and recovery in this README instead of sending readers to the
Claude plugin repository.

Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

* AX-2162 - Document JFROG_PLATFORM_URL instead of JFROG_URL

Remove the legacy JFROG_URL row from the auth table. The documented host
variable is JFROG_PLATFORM_URL.

* Add a Recovery heading and the install-docs CI guard.

* Drop the install-docs README checker and keep this repo self-contained.

* Restore vendored modules to the jfrog-agent-hooks copy.

+Run **`/jfrog-init`** in Copilot Chat after install. **Reload the VS Code window** after MCP config changes (a new chat alone is not enough). Setting `JFROG_PLATFORM_URL` / `JFROG_ACCESS_TOKEN` does not repair a failed init walk — fix the reported step and re-run `/jfrog-init`.

+## Verify
+
+Verification is a required install step, not a troubleshooting fallback:
+
+1. The plugin appears in Copilot's installed plugins list.
+2. **`/jfrog-init`** completes without blocking errors.
+3. **Reload the VS Code window**, open a **new** Copilot chat, and enable the JFrog MCP tools in the tool picker.
+4. `jf rt ping` — succeeds against your configured server.
+
+If a check fails, see [Recovery](#recovery). Fix the step `/jfrog-init` reports, re-run it, and reload the window.

+## Recovery
+
+| Symptom | Do this | Do **not** do this |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| MCP missing after install | Run `/jfrog-init`, **reload the VS Code window**, open a **new** Copilot chat, enable JFrog MCP tools. | Assume a new chat without a window reload will pick up MCP changes. |
+| `/jfrog-init` stopped at CLI/auth | Follow the skill prompt (`jf config add`, web login, or token path), then **re-run `/jfrog-init`**. | Skip init and only export env vars. |
+| Env vars set after a failed init | Fix the reported step, re-run `/jfrog-init`, reload the window. | Expect `JFROG_PLATFORM_URL` alone to substitute the MCP host. |
