Clarify uv tool install path on macOS (#1196)
## Description

Clarifies the recommended install path for the Headroom CLI on macOS
Apple Silicon and Linux. The docs now prefer `uv tool install --python
3.13 "headroom-ai[all]"` for host-level CLI use, keep `pip install`
scoped to Python project environments, and call out absolute executable
paths for MCP clients that do not inherit interactive shell `PATH`.

## Type of Change

- [ ] Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
- [ ] New feature (non-breaking change that adds functionality)
- [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing
functionality to change)
- [x] Documentation update
- [ ] Performance improvement
- [ ] Code refactoring (no functional changes)

## Changes Made

- Added `uv tool install --python 3.13` guidance to the README, docs
install page, quickstarts, and wiki install pages.
- Documented `uv tool update-shell` for shells that cannot find the
installed `headroom` command.
- Clarified absolute MCP server command paths for clients that do not
inherit the interactive shell `PATH`.
- Pointed Intel macOS users at the Docker-native install path until
native wheel support lands.

## Testing

Describe the tests you ran to verify your changes:

- [ ] Unit tests pass (`pytest`) - not run; docs-only change.
- [ ] Linting passes (`ruff check .`) - not run; docs-only change.
- [ ] Type checking passes (`mypy headroom`) - not run; docs-only
change.
- [ ] New tests added for new functionality - not applicable.
- [x] Manual testing performed
- [x] `git diff --check upstream/main...HEAD`

## Real Behavior Proof

```bash
$ git diff --check upstream/main...HEAD
# exits 0; no whitespace errors
```

`npm --prefix docs run types:check` was also attempted. It regenerated
MDX and route types successfully, then failed in existing docs app code
because `@/lib/...` imports cannot resolve from files such as
`app/(home)/layout.tsx`, `app/api/search/route.ts`, and
`components/button.tsx`. This PR only changes `README.md`,
`docs/content/docs/installation.mdx`,
`docs/content/docs/quickstart.mdx`, and `wiki/*.md` files.

## Review Readiness

- [x] Draft PR; docs wording and install-path accuracy are ready for
review.
- [x] No code or runtime files changed.
- [x] Known docs type-check blocker is documented above.

## Test Output

```bash
$ git diff --check upstream/main...HEAD
# no output
```

```text
$ npm --prefix docs run types:check
[MDX] generated files
✓ Types generated successfully
app/(home)/layout.tsx(2,29): error TS2307: Cannot find module @/lib/layout.shared or its corresponding type declarations.
...
components/button.tsx(4,20): error TS2307: Cannot find module @/lib/cn or its corresponding type declarations.
```

## Checklist

- [x] My code follows the project's style guidelines
- [x] I have performed a self-review of my code
- [ ] I have commented my code, particularly in hard-to-understand areas
- not applicable; docs-only change.
- [x] I have made corresponding changes to the documentation
- [x] My changes generate no new warnings
- [ ] I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my
feature works - not applicable; docs-only change.
- [ ] New and existing unit tests pass locally with my changes - not
run; docs-only change.
- [ ] I have updated the CHANGELOG.md if applicable - not applicable.

## Screenshots (if applicable)

Not applicable.

## Additional Notes

The PR remains a draft while docs verification is limited by the
existing docs app `@/lib/*` resolution issue.
