## Why
The previous extraction steps moved shared tool-schema parsing into
`codex-tools`, but `codex-core` still owned the generic Responses API
tool models and the last adapter layer that turned parsed tool
definitions into `ResponsesApiTool` values.
That left `core/src/tools/spec.rs` and `core/src/client_common.rs`
holding a chunk of tool-shaping code that does not need session state,
runtime plumbing, or any other `codex-core`-specific dependency. As a
result, `codex-tools` owned the parsed tool definition, but `codex-core`
still owned the generic wire model that those definitions are converted
into.
This change moves that boundary one step further. `codex-tools` now owns
the reusable Responses/tool wire structs and the shared conversion
helpers for dynamic tools, MCP tools, and deferred MCP aliases.
`codex-core` continues to own `ToolSpec` orchestration and the remaining
web-search-specific request shapes.
## What changed
- added `tools/src/responses_api.rs` to own `ResponsesApiTool`,
`FreeformTool`, `ToolSearchOutputTool`, namespace output types, and the
shared `ToolDefinition -> ResponsesApiTool` adapter helpers
- added `tools/src/responses_api_tests.rs` for deferred-loading
behavior, adapter coverage, and namespace serialization coverage
- rewired `core/src/tools/spec.rs` to use the extracted dynamic/MCP
adapter helpers instead of defining those conversions locally
- rewired `core/src/tools/handlers/tool_search.rs` to use the extracted
deferred MCP adapter and namespace output types directly
- slimmed `core/src/client_common.rs` so it now keeps `ToolSpec` and the
web-search-specific wire types, while reusing the extracted tool models
from `codex-tools`
- moved the extracted seam tests out of `core` and updated
`codex-rs/tools/README.md` plus `tools/src/lib.rs` to reflect the
expanded `codex-tools` boundary
## Test plan
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib tools::spec::`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib tools::handlers::tool_search::`
- `just fix -p codex-tools -p codex-core`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
