feat: inline /office-hours — no more "another window" (v0.11.3.1) (#352)

* feat: inline /office-hours invocation — no more "another window"

BENEFITS_FROM now uses read-and-follow pattern (same as /autoplan) to run
/office-hours inline. Removes handoff note save infrastructure from
plan-ceo-review template. Keeps handoff note check for backward compat.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.11.3.1)

# Changelog
## [0.11.5.1] - 2026-03-23 — Inline Office Hours
### Changed
- **No more "open another window" for /office-hours.** When `/plan-ceo-review` or `/plan-eng-review` offer to run `/office-hours` first, it now runs inline in the same conversation. The review picks up right where it left off after the design doc is ready. Same for mid-session detection when you're still figuring out what to build.
- **Handoff note infrastructure removed.** The handoff notes that bridged the old "go to another window" flow are no longer written. Existing notes from prior sessions are still read for backward compatibility.
## [0.11.5.0] - 2026-03-23 — Bash Compatibility Fix

### Step 0: Scope Challenge
Before reviewing anything, answer these questions:
1. **What existing code already partially or fully solves each sub-problem?** Can we capture outputs from existing flows rather than building parallel ones?
