NCBM e9ee71e853 core/tools: show images instead of describing them
New `view_image` reads a local picture (JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, sniffed from its
bytes) and hands it to the model as an image part, with an optional `detail`
level — `low` measured 3.4x cheaper on a 1200x900 picture. `read_file` now
points at it instead of returning decode noise.

`fetch_local` returns an image response as the picture itself, and MCP image
content blocks become image parts instead of `[image: ...]` placeholders, so a
screenshot server finally reaches the model.
