feat: Integrate WireManager and PinLocator into MCP interface handlers

Updates MCP handlers to use the new wiring infrastructure:

Handler Updates:
- _handle_add_schematic_wire: Uses WireManager.add_wire() with S-expression manipulation
- _handle_add_schematic_connection: Uses ConnectionManager with automatic pin discovery and routing options (direct, orthogonal_h, orthogonal_v)
- _handle_add_schematic_net_label: Uses WireManager.add_label() with support for label types and orientation

Features:
- Automatic pin location discovery with rotation support
- Professional wire routing (direct, orthogonal horizontal-first, orthogonal vertical-first)
- Net label placement with customizable types (label, global_label, hierarchical_label)
- Comprehensive error handling and logging

Testing:
- All MCP handlers tested and verified working
- Integration test: 100% passing (2 wires, 1 label created successfully)
- Verified with kicad-skip that wires and labels are correctly formed
