teknium1 4613f895ab test: give the rewrite-hint fixtures a read baseline; align docs row with schema
The stale-write guard now refuses write_file on an existing file the task
never read in full, so test_write_file_rewrite_hint's overwrite-without-read
fixtures were refused before the hint could be computed. Reading first is
the exact read->whole-file-rewrite pattern the hint exists for.

tools-reference.md's write_file row now mirrors the WRITE_FILE_SCHEMA
description (one-sentence contract + the recovery step) instead of a
longer paraphrase.

"""write_file tells the caller when it just re-sent a large file that was already on disk.
In one 1,393-agent run 661 read->whole-file-rewrites of >20k-char files cost ~25M output chars (~$155)
while `patch` (1.3k chars/call) succeeded 99.7% of the time; the tool result is the only place to say so.
