This PR significantly improves the quality of the initial file search that occurs when the model doesn't yet know the full path to a file it needs to read/edit. Previously, the assertions in file_search often failed on main as the model attempted to guess full file paths. On this branch, it reliably calls `find_path` (previously `path_search`) before reading files. After getting the model to find paths first, I noticed it would try using `grep` instead of `path_search`. This motivated renaming `path_search` to `find_path` (continuing the analogy to unix commands) and adding system prompt instructions about proper tool selection. Note: I know the command is just called `find`, but that seemed too general. In my eval runs, the `file_search` example improved from 40% ± 10% to 98% ± 2%. The only assertion I'm seeing occasionally fail is "glob starts with `**` or project". We can probably add some instructions in that regard. Release Notes: - N/A

Fast file path pattern matching tool that works with any codebase size
- Supports glob patterns like "/*.js" or "src//*.ts"
- Returns matching file paths sorted alphabetically
- Prefer the
greptool to this tool when searching for symbols unless you have specific information about paths. - Use this tool when you need to find files by name patterns
- Results are paginated with 50 matches per page. Use the optional 'offset' parameter to request subsequent pages.
