Unreal Build and Package

Run bounded, asynchronous Unreal build workflows and return their artifacts and log paths. Both tools execute off the Unreal game thread and support cooperative cancellation while waiting for the external build process.

Workflow

1. Use build_plugin_package for this repository's installable DccMcpUnreal ZIP. Pass a source checkout and an Unreal Engine root.
2. Use package_project_executable for a saved .uproject. Configure maps, default game mode, and packaging settings in the project before calling it.
3. Poll the returned DCC MCP job until it completes, then inspect artifacts and log_path. A queued job is not proof that an executable was produced.

The project packaging tool targets Windows Win64 and uses Unreal's BuildCookRun with build, cook, stage, pak, and archive enabled. It does not publish, upload, sign, or install the result.
