TE603 1a14a45881 fix(windows): add KiCad 10.0 bin/Lib/site-packages to Python path detection
KiCad 10.0 on Windows ships pcbnew.py under bin/Lib/site-packages rather
than the lib/python3/dist-packages path used by KiCad 9.x. Without this
path the MCP server's Python process fails to import pcbnew and exits
immediately with "Failed to import pcbnew module - KiCAD Python API not found".

Changes:
- Prioritise 10.0 in the version list so the newer path is checked first
- Add bin/Lib/site-packages check before the existing lib/python3/dist-packages
  check for every version, so both layouts are supported side-by-side

Note: the pcbnew extension is compiled against KiCad's bundled Python 3.11,
so callers must also set KICAD_PYTHON to the KiCad python.exe
(C:\Program Files\KiCad\10.0\bin\python.exe) to avoid a DLL version
conflict when the system Python differs.
