Remove dead UI tools that can never work in headless MCP mode

Browse Source 
ui_get_current_address and ui_get_current_function require Ghidra GUI
context to know what the user has selected. Since MCP always runs
headless (Docker container), these tools always fail with HEADLESS_MODE
error. Removed them to avoid confusion.

Alternative: Use explicit addresses with functions_get(address=...) or
data_list(addr=...) instead.
