fix(read_file): stop promising anydoc conversion in the tool schema 

The read_file description added in #79781 states that PDF, legacy
Office, OpenDocument, RTF, and EPUB convert via the optional anydoc
converter, unconditionally. Conversion actually depends on the lazy
install succeeding, security.allow_lazy_installs, and the file being
readable from the Hermes host, so the schema overpromises and the model
learns to expect conversion in environments that can never provide it.

The description now says these formats convert when the optional anydoc
converter is available, and that the auto-install applies where
installs are permitted.
