fix(mcp): stop infra_stop false positive on decorative equals banners

Line-anchor conflict-marker detection in check_mid_merge and MCP startup
so mcp_discoverability.py RELOAD_INSTRUCTIONS banners no longer block
reviewer capability resolution. Share python_bytes_have_conflict_markers
between mcp_server startup scan and role_session_router mid-merge checks.
