docs(mcp-bridge): scope the commit-safety note to the serply entry

The serply template writes ${SERPLY_API_KEY} rather than the key, but the note
claimed the whole of mcp.json stays safe to commit. Other entries can hold a
literal credential, including the you.com example directly above it, so the
claim now covers the entry and states the condition for the file.
