This updates the schema in `generate_mcp_types.py` from `2025-03-26` to
`2025-06-18`, regenerates `mcp-types/src/lib.rs`, and then updates all
the code that uses `mcp-types` to honor the changes.
Ran
```
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector just codex mcp
```
and verified that I was able to invoke the `codex` tool, as expected.

We now impose a 10s timeout on the initial `tools/list` request to an
MCP server. We do not apply a timeout for other types of requests yet,
but we should start enforcing those, as well.
Cleans up the signature for `new_stdio_client()` to more closely mirror
how MCP servers are declared in config files (`command`, `args`, `env`).
Also takes a cue from Claude Code where the MCP server is launched with
a restricted `env` so that it only includes "safe" things like `USER`
and `PATH` (see the `create_env_for_mcp_server()` function introduced in
this PR for details) by default, as it is common for developers to have
sensitive API keys present in their environment that should only be
forwarded to the MCP server when the user has explicitly configured it
to do so.

This PR introduces an initial `McpClient` that we will use to give Codex
itself programmatic access to foreign MCPs. This does not wire it up in
Codex itself yet, but the new `mcp-client` crate includes a `main.rs`
for basic testing for now.
Manually tested by sending a `tools/list` request to Codex's own MCP
server:
```
codex-rs$ cargo build
codex-rs$ cargo run --bin codex-mcp-client ./target/debug/codex-mcp-server
