Update and reorganize documentation for the Custom DevTools tool sample and related getting-started content. Changes include: - Bumped ms.date to 2026-04-20 in multiple extension docs. - Reworked microsoft-edge/extensions/developer-guide/devtools-extension.md: clarified the relationship between the guide and samples, reorganized file overview (manifest, panel, devtools.html, devtools.js, background.js, content_script.js, icon.png), added sibling links to sample and code, refined wording and added TODO notes. - Simplified microsoft-edge/extensions/getting-started/index.md intro and updated date. - Updated microsoft-edge/extensions/samples/custom-devtools-tool-code.md: revised description, date, sibling markers, clarified devtools.html wording and file list entries. - Updated microsoft-edge/extensions/samples/custom-devtools-tool.md: updated date, sibling links, added GitHub repo links and rearranged 'See also' / Tools references. Overall this commit improves clarity, linking between guide/sample/code, and consistency of file descriptions.
