docs: the web conventions name the shell partial, not navHTML (V-409)

/tools, /routines and /chat were the only pages whose markup still lived in
a Go string constant. They are tools.html, routines.html and chat.html now,
embedded exactly like the eight that already were, so no page markup is
left in Go and the "HTML in Go" complaint is answered with no framework, no
build step and no second artifact.

routineRow/routineRows are routineView/toRoutineViews. The pattern is right
— it maps wire structs to display structs so a template never formats an
interval or a timestamp — but "rows" read like database rows when these are
view models. Checked the other half of that review thread while renaming:
handleRoutines calls the mapper once and formats nothing itself, so there
is no duplicated work between the handler and it.

Content is verbatim. htmx is deliberately not added here; per the task it
comes later and only where a page wants partial updates.

 per-page `<style>` beyond true one-offs. Wrap every table in `<div class=scroll>` so wide
