fix(docs): import tool directly from langchain_core.tools

[bansalkanav]

Description:

Updated the documentation to import tool directly from langchain_core.tools instead of langchain.tools.

langchain.tools is a thin wrapper that simply re-exports tool from langchain_core.tools, adding no functional value and introducing an unnecessary import layer. This change improves clarity, aligns with the core API, and makes the documentation more future-proof with respect to version stability.

Why this is a problem

The langchain package re-exports many modules and classes from langchain_core. When possible, imports should use langchain instead of langchain_core for:

• Better user experience (single import source)
• Consistency across documentation
• Reduced cognitive load for users

How to fix

Replace the imports as suggested above. For example:

• ❌ from langchain_core.messages import HumanMessage
• ✅ from langchain.messages import HumanMessage
