Reorder install-cursor.md to show PAT Docker config first since ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server:latest (v1.4.0) does not include stdio OAuth yet. Document :main tag for OAuth and add troubleshooting for the misleading GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN not set error. Fixes github#2779

Summary
Reorder the Cursor local Docker install guide so PAT configuration comes first (works with
ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server:latest/ v1.4.0). Document that stdio OAuth requires the pre-release:mainimage until the next tagged release, and add troubleshooting for the misleadingGITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN not seterror.Why
