[EM] Improve MCP readiness during gateway startup #4426

Description

@astandrik

Goal

Make MCP readiness explicit and ensure startup recovers promptly when its dependencies become available.

Work

  • Review ordering between Gateway startup and MCP tool initialization.
  • Keep service liveness and MCP readiness distinct.
  • Cover delayed dependencies and recovery with bounded retries where needed.

Done when

  • Tests cover normal startup, delayed dependencies and unavailable dependencies.
  • MCP is reported ready only when initialization and tools/list work.
  • Recovery has documented timing and does not use unbounded retries.
  • The supported client can reconnect after a service restart.

Tracked in the UI backlog; implementation belongs to the native EM backend. Deployment is separate.
