With Introduce local vs. remote mcpserver template option (dotnet/extensions#7168), the mcpserver project template has been moved to a new package Microsoft.McpServer.ProjectTemplates.

This updates the only reference to the project template with the new installation instructions.

The other note higher up on the page still references Microsoft.Extensions.AI.Templates, which seems out of place now that the package is not mentioned elsewhere on the page:

> [!NOTE]
> The `Microsoft.Extensions.AI.Templates` experience is currently in preview. The template uses the [ModelContextProtocol](https://www.nuget.org/packages/ModelContextProtocol/) library and the [MCP registry `server.json` schema](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/blob/main/docs/reference/server-json/generic-server-json.md), which are both in preview.
