fix(tools-tab): resolve remaining PR review comments

- api_v3: use getattr(api_v3, 'plugin_manager', None) instead of the
  module-level plugin_manager (always None); app.py sets the blueprint
  attribute, not the module global, so the fallback to plugin-repos was
  always taken
- pages_v3: replace broad except Exception in _load_tools_partial with
  specific TemplateNotFound / OSError handlers and add [Pages V3][Tools]
  context prefix to log messages and error responses for easier Pi
  debugging
- base.html: add Tools tab branch to the HTMX-unavailable fallback block
  in loadTabContent so the tab loads gracefully via direct fetch if HTMX
  never initialises

Skipped: auth on execute_system_action — pre-existing app-wide design;
reboot/shutdown and all other system actions share the same exposure.
An app-level auth layer is the correct fix and is out of scope here.
