* fix(tests): Use the correct mesa-glx package
* fix(ci): Add fontconfig to GUI test dependencies
FreeCAD GUI was failing to start with:
"Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file: No such file"
Added fontconfig and fonts-dejavu-core packages to the GUI test job
dependencies to resolve the font configuration issue.

* refactor(addon): Extract path utilities into shared module
Create path_utils.py module that consolidates duplicated path-finding
logic from commands.py and InitGui.py:
- get_addon_path(): Find addon directory with caching and fallbacks
- get_icon_path(): Get full path to an icon file
- get_icons_dir(): Get path to icons directory
- get_workbench_icon(): Get path to workbench main icon
This removes ~100 lines of duplicated code while preserving the same
behavior including _addon_path_cache and all fallback methods.

* fix(addon): Prevent stale plugin state on startup failure
The StartMCPBridgeCommand.Activated method could leave _mcp_plugin in
a partially initialized state if FreecadMCPPlugin.start() failed after
the plugin was instantiated.
Changes:
- Create plugin in a local variable first
- Only assign to _mcp_plugin after start() succeeds
- Explicitly clear _mcp_plugin and _running_config in exception
handlers to ensure clean state for subsequent retry attempts

* fix: Lot of broad improvements
* fix(ci): Use blocking headless_server.py for GUI tests
The GUI test was using startup_bridge.py which is non-blocking
(designed for interactive use). For CI, even in GUI mode, we need
the blocking headless_server.py that calls run_forever() to keep
FreeCAD running. GUI features are still available since we use
the 'freecad' executable instead of 'freecadcmd'.

* refactor(addon): Rename headless_server.py to blocking_bridge.py
The old name was misleading because:
- It works with both GUI (freecad) and headless (freecadcmd) modes
- The key characteristic is that it BLOCKS with run_forever()
New naming convention clarifies the difference:
- blocking_bridge.py: Starts bridge and blocks (for CI, servers)
- startup_bridge.py: Starts bridge and returns (for interactive GUI)
Updated all references across:
- GitHub workflow (macro-test.yaml)
- Just commands (freecad.just)
- Unit tests (test_addon_structure.py)
- Documentation (5 files)
- CLAUDE.md
Also improved the script to detect GUI mode dynamically using
FreeCAD.GuiUp and display the appropriate status message.

* fix(just): Remove erroneous rm of startup_bridge.py on error
The startup script is now a permanent source file in the repository,
not a generated temporary file. The rm -f would have deleted source
code if FreeCAD wasn't found.
