Clone Plus Replacement

The Clone Plus add-on will be deprecated at the next renewal due to billing increases, security concerns, and functional issues. Most use cases for this functionality were for creating a work item in different project, while maintaining the summary, description, and attachments, and including a link to the source work item.

The benefits of using the Created Linked Work Item action over Clone Plus include:
