Export defaultTools from @commandkit/ai for selective tool configuration

[Copilot]

Enables developers to selectively enable built-in AI tools instead of all-or-nothing via disableBuiltInTools.

Changes

• Export defaultTools constant from packages/ai/src/plugin.ts with JSDoc documentation
• Rename internal property from defaultTools to builtInTools to avoid shadowing the export
• Update AI plugin guide with new "Selectively enabling built-in tools" section and add missing tools (getMemberById, createEmbed) to the built-in tools list
• Regenerate API docs via pnpm docgen

Usage

import { configureAI, defaultTools } from '@commandkit/ai';

configureAI({
  disableBuiltInTools: true,
  selectAiModel: async (ctx, message) => ({
    model: google.languageModel('gemini-2.0-flash'),
    tools: {
      getAvailableCommands: defaultTools.getAvailableCommands,
      getUserById: defaultTools.getUserById,
      // Omit tools you don't need
    },
  }),
});

<issue_title>Allow customizing defaultTools in @commandkit/ai</issue_title>
<issue_description>

It would be great to have a way to customize or override
defaultTools in @commandkit/ai.

In many cases, not all built-in tools are needed—for example, createEmbed. Being able to selectively enable or disable these tools would give developers more flexibility and help keep implementations cleaner and more intentional.

This would make the library easier to adapt to different use cases without having to work around unused defaults.

<agent_instructions>export defaultTools record from the ai package and also update the docs (api docs can be auto generated with script, see root package.json, you just need to update the guide for ai plugin showing how disabling builtin tools and manually injecting the desired ones to the configureAI tools record can fix this issue of default tools customization). No need to run tests or build the changes, only do these tasks.</agent_instructions>
