Subject: [PATCH] refactor: use Markdown reference links in Javadoc, ban
 {@link} via checkstyle
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Converts all 57 {@link ...} / {@linkplain ...} inline tags in /// Markdown
Javadoc to Markdown reference links ([ClassName#method(ParamType)]), matching
the project's stated convention.

Adds a checkstyle RegexpSingleline that bans {@link}/{@linkplain} in /// lines
so the old style cannot creep back, mirroring the existing {@code} ban. Also
fixes a latent bug in both rules' messages: checkstyle renders them with
MessageFormat, which threw "can't parse argument number" on the literal
{@code}/{@link} braces whenever a violation actually fired — reworded to avoid
braces.
