The tools-installation block on (controlled by variable INSTALL_GO_TOOLS) should by a user-facing toggle.
Prior to this patch INSTALL_GO_TOOLS had to be put into devcontainer.json and was not documented.
This adds the missing option declaration and fixes install.sh to read the correctly-exported name, consistent with the version and golangCiLintVersion pattern immediately above it.

Added 'installGoTools' option to specify installation of common Go tools.
Added 'installGoTools' option to README for Go tools installation.
