This pull request fixes #6361.

Changes made:

  1. Removed the standalone app-browser.md file as it was redundant
  2. Updated the app browser documentation in gui-mode.md to correctly describe its purpose:
    • Changed focus to monitoring and verification by human users
    • Clarified that it shows what the agent is doing, not what it can do
    • Updated capabilities and use cases to reflect verification purpose
    • Improved browser controls section to emphasize monitoring aspects

The documentation now accurately reflects that the app browser is a tool for human users to monitor and verify the AI agent's web interactions, rather than a tool for the AI to interact with web applications.

@openhands-agent This documentation is not correct. Please read the frontend code for the app browser and understand what it actually does. Its purpose is to allow the human user to interact with the app to see if the agent implemented it properly.

@openhands-agent You created a new page app-browser.md, but the old incorrect content about the app browser is still included in gui-mode.md. gui-mode.md is an appropriate place for the new content, so please delete the file that you created, but add that content to gui-mode.md instead of the incorrect content.
