Remote-mode path-safety check no longer applies during auto or plan mode

What

The check that decides whether a file read or write is safe under remote mode's restricted paths previously just looked at whether remote mode was on and the path wasn't restricted. It's now computed by a new helper that also excludes auto mode, certain plan-mode states, and cases where the mode was switched over from auto.

Why

This tightens when the remote-mode path restriction actually applies, avoiding it being enforced in situations, like auto or plan mode, where it isn't meant to kick in.
