[TASK] /compact in Plan mode accept action is redundant

[edenreich]

Summary

/compact is redundant in plan mode when the user accept the plan and moves to auto-approve - because the agent is also instructed to read the plan file which contains all what the agent wants to work on.

Instead of /compact it should do /new which will not summary the conversation and then just instruct the agent to read the plan file and start working on it. Simpler, less tokens, more efficient.

Acceptance Criteria

• There is no /compact execution when the user accepts the plan
• Instead of /compact there is a simple /new execution (for a new session) and an instruction to read the plan file and start working
• Documentation is adjusted
• It's tested

Pull Request

#755

✅ Infer Result: Success

All acceptance criteria are met. The implementation is complete and verified:

• No /compact execution: compactPlanningContext() removed entirely
• /new + instruction: newSessionAfterPlanApproval() starts a fresh empty session and adds a hidden user message telling the agent to read the plan file
• Documentation: docs/plan-mode.md updated with "Fresh session on approval" section
• Tests: TestNewSessionAfterPlanApproval covers both with and without a plan path; all internal tests pass
