feat(tools): implement real WebFetch with curl + HTML stripping

lingcoder · lingcoder · commit 54f94c4c661f · 2026-04-09T01:48:17.000+08:00
- web_fetch.rs: replace stub with curl-based HTTP fetch, HTML tag
  stripping, 100k char truncation, real content delivery
- web_search.rs: add search_via_api() framework with fallback to
  stub results + configuration guidance when no API is configured

WebFetch now returns real page content. WebSearch provides clear
path to configuration. Both match CCB's functional behavior.
