Drive MCP: create_file creates duplicates, no update_file available

Problem Statement

The Google Drive MCP server only provides create_file, which always creates
a new file with a new ID instead of updating an existing one.

There is no update_file or overwrite_file tool available.

This means every session creates a duplicate file on Drive, making it
impossible to maintain a stable file ID for an existing document.

Requested feature: an update_file tool that accepts an existing file ID
and overwrites its content in place, without creating a duplicate.

Proposed Solution

The Google Drive MCP server only has create_file, which always creates a
new file with a new ID. There is no update_file or overwrite_file tool.

This makes it impossible to maintain a stable file ID across sessions.
Needed: an update_file tool that accepts a file ID and overwrites content
in place, without creating a duplicate.
