fix(mcp): allow update wrappers to clear booleans and numerics

copyByJSONTag previously skipped any IsZero value, which made it
impossible for tasks_update / projects_update to flip done from true
to false, reset priority/percent_done to 0, or unarchive a project.

A non-nil pointer src is now the unambiguous "caller supplied this"
signal: dereferenced values are written through even when zero, while
value-typed src fields keep the partial-update semantics. The
affected wrapper fields (Done, IsArchived, IsFavorite, Priority,
PercentDone, RepeatAfter, RepeatMode, BucketID,
CoverImageAttachmentID, ParentProjectID, Position) move to pointer
types so the JSON Schema still marks them optional.

+// Input wrappers and the wrapper→model adapter.
+//
+// The SDK's AddTool[In, Out] reflects over the In type's struct tags
+// (`json:` for property names, `jsonschema:` for descriptions, omission of
+// `omitempty`/`omitzero` for "required") to build the tool's input schema
+// via github.com/google/jsonschema-go. We never write a schema by hand.
+//
+// Wrappers stay in the MCP layer rather than being bolted onto domain
+// models: Vikunja models embed dozens of `xorm:"-" json:"..."` computed
+// fields (e.g. `Project.Owner`, `Project.MaxPermission`, `Project.Views`)
+// that would pollute the input schema if we fed `*models.X{}` directly to
+// AddTool. The wrapper is the explicit, narrow shape of "what a caller is
+// allowed to specify".
+//
+// Most resources have symmetric `read_one` and `delete` shapes ({id}) and a
+// symmetric `read_all` shape ({search, page, per_page}); those three live
+// in this file. Per-resource `<Resource>CreateInput` / `<Resource>UpdateInput`
+// land in Task 5/7 next to the resource registrations.
+//
+// Path-param caveat for Task 7: Vikunja's REST layer binds some fields from
+// the URL (e.g. `LabelTask.TaskID` from `/tasks/:task/labels`). MCP tools
+// take everything as JSON arguments — there are no URL paths to bind from
+// — so a `LabelTaskCreateInput` must include `task_id` as an explicit JSON
+// field. The wrapper is the only contract; if the field isn't on the
+// wrapper the caller cannot supply it.

+// copyByJSONTag copies fields from src to dst by matching `json` tag

+//
+// Rules:
+//   - src may be a struct value or a struct pointer; dst must be a pointer
+//     to a struct.
+//   - Field matching is by the first segment of the `json` tag (i.e.
+//     "title,omitempty" matches "title"). Fields without a json tag (or
+//     tagged `json:"-"`) are skipped on both sides.
+//   - For value-typed src fields, zero values are skipped so partial
+//     updates work naturally — only fields the caller actually supplied
+//     get propagated. This mirrors the REST update handler's "omitted
+//     JSON keys leave the row untouched" behaviour.
+//   - For pointer-typed src fields, a nil pointer is treated as "absent"
+//     and skipped. A non-nil pointer is dereferenced and assigned even
+//     when its pointee is the zero value, so wrappers can explicitly set
+//     `false` / `0` / `""` by modelling the field as a pointer.
+//   - Type compatibility: the helper assigns src's value to dst's field
+//     when the types are directly assignable. time.Time / *time.Time work
+//     out of the box because time.Time is a struct, not a basic type.
+//   - Extra fields on src that have no match on dst are silently ignored.

+//     value.
