Code Review

This pull request enhances the Plan Mode documentation by adding a new section on planning workflows. This new section details the built-in adaptive workflow and provides guidance on creating custom workflows, using the Conductor extension as a primary example. Additionally, the PR refactors numerous markdown links to use relative paths and reference-style definitions, improving consistency and maintainability. The new content is clear and the link refactoring is a welcome improvement. I have found no high or critical issues with these changes.
