🐛 Block MCP REPL server in multi-user mode and decouple its host

The unauthenticated REPL server started in --multi-user mode whenever DEVENV or REPL_ENABLE was set, unlike developer tools which are already blocked there. Gate its creation behind shouldStartReplServer, mirroring the developer tools policy, so it never starts with --multi-user. Give it a dedicated PENPOT_MCP_REPL_HOST knob defaulting to localhost so it no longer inherits the main server 0.0.0.0 bind in Docker, keep the devenv script on 0.0.0.0, and document and test the new behavior.
