Use main repo directories for shared dependencies

Simplified the worktree setup to use the main repository's node_modules
and vendor directories directly instead of creating a separate .shared-deps
directory.

Changes:
- Updated conductor-setup.sh to symlink directly to main repo's directories
- Updated CLAUDE.md to reflect the simpler approach
- Symlinks now point to ../../node_modules and ../../vendor

Benefits:
- Simpler setup with no extra directories
- All worktrees share the main repo's dependencies
- No need to add .shared-deps to .gitignore

-1. Creates a shared `.shared-deps/` directory in the main repository
+1. Creates symlinks from worktree's `node_modules` and `vendor` to the main repository's directories
-2. Creates symlinks from `node_modules` and `vendor` to the shared location

 3. This happens automatically when Conductor creates a new worktree

+- Dependencies are shared from the main repository (`$CONDUCTOR_ROOT_PATH`)
-- Run `npm install` or `composer install` from any worktree to update all

-- Ensure `.shared-deps/` is in `.gitignore` (should already be there)
 - If different branches need different dependency versions, this won't work - remove symlinks and use separate directories
