Context
PR #1425 fixes #798 by treating incoming short links as immutable snapshots and removing a stale short URL after the represented content changes.
A remaining product limitation affects small markdown plans: ExportModal only offers Create short link when the full hash URL exceeds 2048 characters or hash sharing is unavailable. After editing a small plan loaded from a short link, the user gets a correct fresh full URL, but cannot explicitly mint a replacement short link from Export. This leaves the literal short-link step in the workflow reported in #798 incomplete for small plans.
Intended behavior
After an incoming or locally generated short URL is invalidated by a material edit, Export should offer an explicit way to create a fresh short link even when the current full hash URL is below the large-URL threshold.
Constraints
- Keep pastes immutable: never update or delete the original paste.
- Creating a replacement remains an explicit user action; do not auto-upload on edits.
- Preserve current payload, encryption, and existing-link compatibility.
- Decide whether the action should appear only after invalidation or be available for every shareable small plan.
Acceptance criteria
- A small markdown plan loaded from a short link loses the stale URL after an edit.
- Export exposes a replacement short-link action.
- Invoking it creates a distinct encrypted paste representing current content.
- The original paste remains unchanged.
Tracked separately from #1425 per the maintainer review so that PR stays focused on stale-snapshot correctness.
