refactor: Tool Output Management: Add Component-Specific Variable for…

… Conditional Tool Output (#4259)

Implement conditional tool output handling

- Updated `component.py` to check for `FEATURE_FLAGS.add_toolkit_output` and call `_append_tool_output` if the component has the `add_tool_output` attribute set to True.
- Ensured that the tool output behavior is correctly managed based on feature flags and component attributes in `custom_component.py`.
