Fixes #3292.

Before: the last two bullets under "Why does MCP matter?" read as mismatched. The AI applications bullet talks about the end-user experience and the end-users bullet describes AI applications, which is what the issue reports.

After: each bullet now names its audience directly. The AI applications bullet says MCP gives them ecosystem access, and the end-users bullet says MCP results in more capable applications that can act on the user's behalf.

How: the literal swap proposed in the issue would leave the end-user phrasing under the AI applications heading with no referent, so the wording is adjusted in place instead, in every doc version that carried the identical text (2024-11-05, 2025-03-26, 2025-06-18, 2025-11-25, 2026-07-28, and draft). Per review feedback, the end-users bullet uses third person rather than addressing the reader. Verified with npm run check:docs and npm run format:docs, both clean.

The AI applications bullet mentioned the end-user experience and the
end-users bullet described AI applications, so the two read as swapped
(#3292). Reword both bullets to name their audience directly in every
doc version that carried the identical text.

Fixes #3292
