c3530024c4 feat(pdf): replace PdfLib with Pdfium for form handling and general rendering tasks (#5899)
# Description of Changes

Improves PDF rendering in the viewer by adding digital signature field
support,
cleaning up overlay rendering, and migrating the contrast tool off
pdf-lib to PDFium WASM.

### Signature Field Overlay
- Added `SignatureFieldOverlay` component that renders digital signature
form fields
- Renders appearance streams when present; shows a fallback badge for
unsigned fields
- Uses PDFium WASM for bitmap extraction

### Overlay Rendering
- Integrated `SignatureFieldOverlay` and `ButtonAppearanceOverlay` into
`LocalEmbedPDF`
- Overlays are now clipped to page boundaries
- Clarified in `EmbedPdfViewer` that frontend overlays use PDFium WASM,
  backend overlays use PDFBox

### Contrast Tool Migration
- Replaced pdf-lib with PDFium WASM in `useAdjustContrastOperation`
- PDF page creation and image embedding now go through PDFium APIs
directly
- Updated bitmap handling and memory management accordingly

### Cleanup
- Fixed import ordering in viewer components
- Removed stale comments in the contrast operation hook
