fix: use explicit relative path for swiss-letter.tex template

Browse Source 
The /convert-cover-letter command was using a placeholder syntax
[path-to-swiss-letter.tex] which caused inconsistent template discovery.
Claude Code would sometimes skip the template or fail to find it, resulting
in cover letters using Pandoc's default template instead of Swiss Norm formatting.

This fix replaces the placeholder with an explicit relative path
(../../../src/.claude/templates/swiss-letter.tex) that reliably resolves
from the typical execution location (applications/pending/[job-folder]/)
to the project root and then to the template directory.

Changes:
- Updated src/.claude/commands/convert-cover-letter.md with explicit template path
- Enhanced specification with template path resolution requirement
- Added clarification about path resolution relative to execution location

Testing:
- Verified PDF generation with Swiss letter template from application folders
- Confirmed consistent template discovery across different working directories
- Validated Swiss Norm formatting (address window positioning, KOMA-Script)

### Requirement: Template Management
The system SHALL provide and maintain the Swiss letter LaTeX template.
The system SHALL provide and maintain the Swiss letter LaTeX template with explicit path resolution to ensure consistent template usage across all execution contexts.
#### Scenario: Template availability
- **WHEN** the `/convert-cover-letter` command is run
- **THEN** the system uses the template at `src/.claude/templates/swiss-letter.tex`
- **AND** passes it to Pandoc via the `--template` option
- **AND** the path is specified explicitly relative to the typical execution location
- **AND** passes it to Pandoc via the `--template` option with the full relative path
#### Scenario: Template path resolution
- **WHEN** converting a cover letter from an application folder location (`applications/pending/[job-folder]/`)
- **THEN** the template path `../../../src/.claude/templates/swiss-letter.tex` is used
- **AND** the path goes up three levels to the project root and then to the template directory
- **AND** the explicit path ensures consistent template discovery regardless of execution context
#### Scenario: Template customization
- **WHEN** users need to modify letter styling
- **THEN** they can edit the swiss-letter.tex template
- **THEN** they can edit the swiss-letter.tex template at `src/.claude/templates/swiss-letter.tex`
- **AND** changes apply to all subsequent conversions
- **AND** the template includes comments explaining customizable sections
