Artifact publish tool's out_dir description now spells out that off-default saves are an ordinary file save needing approval

What

The description of the out_dir parameter on the artifact publish tool has been rewritten. It now states the default save location as a single, unconditional sentence, followed by additional clauses covering multi-file saves and asset-specific behavior. It also now explicitly says that saving an asset outside the default folder counts as an "ordinary file save the person may be asked to approve."

Why

This makes clearer to Claude when saving outside the default location should be treated like any other file write that may need the person's approval, rather than being a special artifact-only operation.
