Resolves issue where MCP tools fail with 'tasksJsonPath is required' error when the 'file' parameter is not provided, even though it should be optional.

Changes

Modified resolveTasksPath() to construct default path ${projectRoot}/.taskmaster/tasks/tasks.json
Added fallback logic when core path finder returns null
Maintains existing behavior when explicit file path is provided
Added logging for debugging path resolution

Fixes #1272

Generated with Claude Code

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- Automatically selects a default tasks file location when not configured and a project root is available.
Bug Fixes
- Prevents failures when a tasks path isn’t provided by falling back to a sensible default.
Improvements
- Clearer logs showing the resolved tasks path.
- More predictable behavior when no project root is available, with explicit error propagation for handling.
