Subject: [PATCH] Feat: Improved Workspace_action.sh and added relative
 workspace support.

## Problem
The previous script didnt take into account for relative workspaces, and my previous pull request was... bad.
## Fix
Added smart branching to detect if the target is a literal number(1,2,90), or a relative number(+1, -20) or a string target.
## Bugs
None. ive been stress testing it since the last 2 days,
