The Reference menu links were using incorrect paths (impl/ and compat/) instead of the deployed site structure (maven-impl-modules/ and maven-compat-modules/), causing 404 errors on the production site. Fixed URLs: - Lifecycles: ./maven-impl-modules/maven-core/lifecycles.html - Plugin Bindings: ./maven-impl-modules/maven-core/default-bindings.html - Artifact Handlers: ./maven-impl-modules/maven-core/artifact-handlers.html - CLI options: ./maven-compat-modules/maven-embedder/cli.html - Super POM: ./maven-compat-modules/maven-model-builder/super-pom.html

The Reference menu links were pointing to outdated paths (impl/ and compat/) that do not exist on the deployed Maven 4 reference site, resulting in 404 errors.
This PR updates the Reference menu URLs to match the current deployed site structure (maven-impl-modules/ and maven-compat-modules), fixing navigation for Lifecycles, Plugin Bindings, Artifact Handlers, CLI options, and Super POM.
Related to #2502.
