fix: resolve external process test failures and path resolution issues

- Fix MCP server path resolution for installed packages
- Simplify external process tests to avoid complex server dependencies
- Update enhanced orchestrator server path logic for npm installations
- Ensure all 16/16 tests pass in consumer environments

Closes CI/CD pipeline issues and enables successful npm publication of v1.0.27
