docs: correct Developer extension tool table

Browse source 
The tool table listed text_editor/analyze/screen_capture/image_processor,
which no longer match the tools the platform Developer extension ships.
Update to the actual tools: shell, write, edit, tree, read_image. Also note
that codebase analysis is now the separate Analyze extension.

The Developer extension allows goose to automate developer-centric tasks such as file editing, shell command execution, and project setup. It also provides tools for [enhanced code editing](/docs/guides/enhanced-code-editing) and [codebase analysis](/docs/guides/codebase-analysis).
The Developer extension allows goose to automate developer-centric tasks such as file editing, shell command execution, and project setup. It also supports [enhanced code editing](/docs/guides/enhanced-code-editing). For semantic [codebase analysis](/docs/guides/codebase-analysis), see the separate Analyze extension.
This tutorial will cover enabling and using the Developer MCP Server, which is a built-in goose extension.
