docs: cross-link general docs to the discipline demand docs

Browse Source 
Tighten the router so race-specific reasoning in the general docs points to
the matching demand profile instead of speaking in a road/TT-default voice:

- periodization.md: anchor the build phase's 'race-specific top-end' to the
  matching demand doc (tt / road-racing / mtb-xco).
- durability.md: show how fatigue resistance manifests per discipline.
- data-confounds.md: extend the intermittent-HR caveat to road racing/crits;
  note TT as the steadier exception where HR is more usable.
- strength-for-cyclists.md: link the explosive/sprint transfer to road-racing
  and sustained-power transfer to TT.
- vo2max-intervals.md: match rep length to event (short=surges/road+MTB,
  long=sustained/TT); extend the HR caveat to road racing.

All internal links verified resolving.

Rønnestad protocols (2016/2020/2021); good for riders who fade on long reps or want more total
high-intensity work per session. Not proven superior once total work is matched.
- **Long intervals (~4–5 min):** favored by the running time-at-VO2max data (Fleckenstein 2025)
and useful for **sustained** aerobic power and race-specific steady demands; a reasoned choice,
not a cycling-proven one.
- **Prescribe from power.** For MTB especially, HR lags and misleads (`mtb-xco-demands.md`,
`data-confounds.md`).
and useful for **sustained** aerobic power and steady race demands like the TT
(`tt-demands.md`); a reasoned choice, not a cycling-proven one.
- **Match reps to the event:** short/repeated efforts rehearse the surges of road racing
(`road-racing-demands.md`) and MTB (`mtb-xco-demands.md`); longer reps rehearse sustained TT power
(`tt-demands.md`).
- **Prescribe from power.** For intermittent racing (MTB, road/crit) HR lags and misleads
(`mtb-xco-demands.md`, `road-racing-demands.md`, `data-confounds.md`).
- **Verify the session worked:** pull the interval stats/streams from MCP and check power held near
target across reps. Fading power = too much intensity or too little recovery; adjust work:rest.
