Pin the remaining developer tool installs (closes #68)

gofumpt was pinned only by its version tag. It is now a tool of a
separate module in tools/, so `go tool` builds it from source checked
against the hashes in tools/go.sum, and mfer's own module gains no
dependencies. script/prettier no longer falls back to a prettier on
PATH, and fails when node_modules holds a different version than
package.json pins. The bootstrap comment now says what --frozen-lockfile
really does, package.json drops its made-up version, and the golang
image comment names its exact version.
