Plan mode's check before refusing a tool call now also looks at the current permission mode

What

While in plan mode, Claude Code sometimes has to force a late refusal for a tool call that looks read-only but might not be. That check previously only looked at whether the call had been pre-approved. It now also factors in an additional permission-mode condition before deciding whether to refuse.

Why

This refines when plan mode blocks a tool call at the last moment, aiming to make the refusal decision line up more accurately with the actual permission mode in effect.
