refactor(tool-youtube-transcript): always save full transcript, fix description

- Always write the full transcript to /tmp/dispatch/youtube-transcribe/{video_id}.txt
  (not just on truncation)
- Description no longer claims to return the full transcript; instead says
  it returns transcript text (truncated if very long) and the full version is
  always saved to the file path
