fix: Use Obsidian's generateMarkdownLink for consistent link formatting (Issue #312)

Replace hard-coded wikilink generation with Obsidian's generateMarkdownLink()
method to respect user's link format preferences and ensure consistency.

Changes:
- Fix "Insert tasknote link" command to use generateMarkdownLink with task title as alias
- Fix "Convert task to TaskNote" command to use generateMarkdownLink
- Update generateLinkText helper to use generateMarkdownLink
- Both commands now respect Obsidian's "Files & Links" settings
- Consistent link format between both commands
- Compatible with external tools when markdown links are preferred

Fixes #312
