fix: run the read-only tools from the repo root

Only verify.py and generate_pack.py moved to the repository root. From
any other folder slots, region_audit, provenance_report and bundled_only
said database.json was missing and to rebuild it, identity and
list_platforms named a missing folder, and game_rules ended on a
FileNotFoundError traceback. work_from_repo_root moves to common.py and
the eight tools call it: defaults are read from the root, a path the
user typed from where it was typed.
