codex-tools: extract local host tool specs (#16138)

## Why

`core/src/tools/spec.rs` still bundled a set of pure local-host tool
builders with the orchestration that actually decides when those tools
are exposed and which handlers back them. That made `codex-core`
responsible for JSON/tool-shape construction that does not depend on
session state, and it kept the `codex-tools` migration from taking a
meaningfully larger bite out of `spec.rs`.

This PR moves that reusable spec-building layer into `codex-tools` while
leaving feature gating, handler registration, and runtime-coupled
descriptions in `codex-core`.

## What changed

- added `codex-rs/tools/src/local_tool.rs` for the pure builders for
`exec_command`, `write_stdin`, `shell`, `shell_command`, and
`request_permissions`
- added `codex-rs/tools/src/view_image.rs` for the `view_image` tool
spec and output schema so the extracted modules stay right-sized
- rewired `codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs` to call those extracted
builders instead of constructing these specs inline
- kept the `request_permissions` description source in `codex-core`,
with `codex-tools` taking the description as input so the crate boundary
does not grow a dependency on handler/runtime code
- moved the direct constructor coverage for this slice from
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec_tests.rs` into
`codex-rs/tools/src/local_tool_tests.rs` and
`codex-rs/tools/src/view_image_tests.rs`
- updated `codex-rs/tools/README.md` to reflect that `codex-tools` now
owns this local-host spec layer

## Test plan

- `CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/codex-tools-local-host cargo test -p
codex-tools`
- `CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/codex-core-local-tools cargo test -p codex-core
--lib tools::spec::`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
