feature

Cloud SQL for MySQL's remote MCP server now supports specialized endpoint URLs, allowing users to restrict tool access based on security and workflow requirements. Developers can easily provision free trial instances for testing and development by setting a new parameter in the `create_instance` tool. Additionally, SQL statements can now automatically include `sqlcommenter` tags for enhanced database observability when using specific execution tools. These updates provide greater control over tool exposure, simplify trial instance provisioning, and improve insights into database operations for Cloud SQL users.
