feat(inspection): add comprehensive element inspection tools

  Add 17 new tools for DOM and CSS inspection:
  - inspect_element, get_element_styles, get_element_box_model
  - query_selector, highlight_element, hide_highlight
  - get_dom_tree, capture_dom_snapshot, force_element_state
  - get_element_event_listeners, get_element_at_position
  - search_dom, get_fonts_info, show_layout_overlay
  - get_accessibility_info, compare_elements, get_css_variables

  These tools enable AI agents to fully inspect elements like
  Chrome DevTools Elements panel - getting styles, layouts,
  properties, event listeners, and more.
