Description

Microsoft completed the Azure AD to Entra ID rebrand back in 2023. This PR drops the remaining "Azure AD" references across the docs, some had no Entra ID pairing at all, others used a stale "Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD)" parenthetical, and standardizes on "Microsoft Entra ID" on first use / "Entra ID" thereafter.

Changes:

  • Removed standalone "Azure AD" mentions and the "(Azure AD)" qualifier in the Registry Server, vMCP, and auth framework docs
  • Renamed the example tab and provider key in the Registry Server authentication guide from azure-ad to entra, matching the naming convention already used in the Entra ID vMCP integration guide
  • Added a "Microsoft Entra ID" entry to the word list in AGENTS.md and the glossary in STYLE-GUIDE.md

Microsoft completed the Azure AD to Entra ID rebrand in 2023, so
drop the outdated name and the "(Azure AD)" qualifier throughout the
docs. Also renames the authentication guide's example tab/provider
key from azure-ad to entra, and adds a word list entry to AGENTS.md
and STYLE-GUIDE.md.
