feat: add unified update_claude_comment tool

- Add new update_claude_comment tool that automatically handles both issue and PR comments
- Remove individual update_issue_comment and update_pull_request_comment tools
- Pass CLAUDE_COMMENT_ID, GITHUB_EVENT_NAME, and IS_PR to MCP server environment
- Simplify Claude's comment update workflow by removing need for owner/repo/commentId params
- Update prompts and tests to use the new unified tool
