Chrome tool guidance for the model is now inline instead of a separate file reference.

The tool-use guidance for Claude in Chrome is now inline instead of file-referenced. It tells the model that Claude-in-Chrome tools need no separate enabling if present (identified by names containing claude-in-chrome or Claude_in_Chrome), with fallback guidance to use Claude_Browser-named tools or tell the user Chrome isn't connected.
