Copilot for JetBrains adds managed default models and MCP startup control

Enterprise admins can now pick any available Copilot agent model as the default for new conversations via managed settings, while an explicit model picker choice is preserved. A new MCP setting lets you disable automatic server startup for Copilot and Claude.

Support for JetBrains IDE 2025.1 has ended; you now need JetBrains IDE 2025.2 or later to use the plugin. Diagnostic intention menus also gain a Fix action that opens inline chat and asks Copilot to repair the issue.
