qet-mcp: size a folio for a sheet of paper (set_folio_border preset)

setFolioBorder(folio, "preset", "tabloid-landscape") picks the column and
row counts and whole-number sizes that fill the sheet best without going
over it, as one ChangeBorderCommand. The title block and headers are
measured from the folio, so it holds for any template on either edge.
Sizes stay whole because the folio properties panel edits them in whole
pixels. Among fills within 1.5 pt of the sheet, the size nearest the
current one wins: from a new folio tabloid landscape is 23 x 70 by 12 x 82,
not 9 x 179 by 5 x 197. A0-A5, letter, legal, tabloid/ledger, each
-portrait or -landscape; folioPresets() lists them, and folioBorder() reads
"width" and "height" of the frame and title block.

Every preset exports on its sheet; landscape ones rely on the previous
commit, which turns a wide page before matching it to a sheet.

The MCP server checks the name up front, probes for folioPresets(), and
the op's note says what was chosen and the frame's size in points.
