另一种方案是维持 伴随/自伴 的翻译，但做出注解，避免与 adjugate 混淆。 |

Pull request overview
This PR proposes terminology clarifications for the translation of "adjoint" in a Chinese quantum mechanics textbook. The author distinguishes between "adjoint" (conjugate transpose) and "adjugate" (classical adjoint matrix from linear algebra) to avoid confusion, proposing to translate "adjoint" as "伴随" rather than "伴随矩阵" throughout Chapter 1.
Changes:
- Updated terminology from "伴随矩阵" to "伴随" for adjoint matrices/operators
- Added a footnote explaining the distinction between "adjoint" (conjugate transpose) and "adjugate" (adjoint matrix in linear algebra)
- Updated "自伴随" to "自伴" with English term "(self-adjoint)" added for clarity

@copilot should still use 伴随矩阵 but with proper footnote. |

adjoint 在本章中实际是转置共轭的意思，如译为”伴随“，似易与"adjugate"混淆。但是adjoint 本身似乎没有一个准确的译名。我想可以对几个名词做如下翻译
感觉后两个有点拗口……
