* Remove unnecessary [Experimental] attributes from MCP package

The package is already alpha, so the [Experimental] attribute is redundant.
Removed from both AgentSkillsProviderBuilderMcpExtensions and
AgentMcpSkillsSource classes.

* Make Agent_Step06_McpBasedSkills self-contained and add to verify-samples

Embed an internal MCP server (launched via --server flag as a child process)
that serves skill://index.json and skill://unit-converter/SKILL.md resources,
replacing the external MCP_SKILLS_ENDPOINT dependency. The sample now uses
StdioClientTransport and a fixed prompt instead of an interactive loop.

Added SampleDefinition to AgentsSamples.cs for automated verification.

Basic Agent - .NET

using Azure.AI.OpenAI;
using Azure.Identity;
using Microsoft.Agents.AI;
using OpenAI.Responses;

var endpoint = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT")!;
var deploymentName = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME")!;

var agent = new AzureOpenAIClient(new Uri(endpoint), new AzureCliCredential())
    .GetResponsesClient(deploymentName)
    .AsAIAgent(name: "HaikuBot", instructions: "You are an upbeat assistant that writes beautifully.");

Console.WriteLine(await agent.RunAsync("Write a haiku about Microsoft Agent Framework."));
