Adds the engine setup to the tooling doc, next to the Blender pin:

Redot LTS 26.2, Mono build is the standard editor (pin decided in game-planning#1; Mono build confirmed as standard 2026-10-20). Native GDScript stays the default — the Mono build is used so the capability is available when justified.
Prerequisite: .NET SDK 8.0+. Verified the hard way on my VM: without dotnet, the Mono editor fails to load hostfxr and crashes outright on project load (no GDScript-only fallback). The doc gives the symptom + first check so nobody burns time rediscovering it.
Exporting builds needs the Mono export templates (.tpz) installed in the editor — noted for whoever runs exports.
README index line updated to match.
