Add detailed plan for migrating to moduleResolution node16/nodenext with file extensions in imports. This plan addresses: - #154 - Upgrade moduleResolution from node to node16/nodenext - #110 - Published ESM code has imports without file extensions - #64 - expressions: ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND attempting to run example demo script - #146 - Can not import @actions/workflow-parser The migration will: 1. Upgrade TypeScript to 5.7+ 2. Enable rewriteRelativeImportExtensions 3. Add .ts extensions to all relative imports 4. Update JSON imports to use import attributes Implementation will begin after pending PRs are merged to avoid conflicts.
