docs: Cursor MCP live smoke evidence (traverse-mcp Mode A)

[enricopiovesan]

Summary

Live smoke for Cursor MCP → traverse-mcp Mode A: ran the same cargo run -p traverse-mcp -- stdio command as clients/cursor/mcp.json.example against Traverse v0.8.2 and checked in discovery + validate/execute/render transcripts under clients/cursor/evidence/. README documents absolute-path setup and an honest catalog note (default MCP catalog is expedition; starter/meeting-notes IDs not yet listed).
