sepehr e706cef5d6 feat(format): B3.5 — PDF smart-fit rewrite + critical fontname=None fix ...

ROOT CAUSE FIX: PyMuPDF silently raised AttributeError when fontname=None
was passed to insert_textbox. The try/except in _try_insert was swallowing
the error and returning None, causing every block to be skipped via the
graceful failure path. Setting fontname='helv' as the default unblocks
the entire PDF translation pipeline.

SMART-FIT: rewrite _write_translated_block with proper tier-fallback:
  - Tier 0: original bbox at original size
  - Tier 1: expanded horizontal
  - Tier 2: expanded vertical (3x original height)
  - Tier 3: shrink once (0.93x)
  - Tier 4: shrink twice (0.87x cumulative)
  - Tier 5: min size floor (90% for headings, 75% for body)
  - Tier 6: graceful skip with visible placeholder

REDACTION: single redaction per block (was per sub-bbox, creating 100+
redaction rectangles per page). Now only 1 redaction per text block.

FEATURE FLAG: PDF_SMART_FIT_ENABLED (default true, observation-first).

METRICS: text_overflow -> format_elements_lost_total.

RESULT ON REAL PDF:
  Before: fonts shrunk 22pt->5.6pt, hierarchy destroyed
  After:  fonts EXACT match: [8, 11, 12, 14, 16, 22] preserved
