Balázs Szücs 8164c56d33 [V2] feat(ocr): add option to invalidate digital signatures with warning tooltip (#5148)
# Description of Changes
This pull request adds support for invalidating digital signatures
during the OCR process, allowing users to process signed PDFs with OCR
at the cost of breaking their digital signatures. The feature is
integrated across the backend, frontend, and user interface, including
appropriate warnings to inform users of the consequences.

**Backend support for digital signature invalidation:**

- Added a new `invalidateDigitalSignatures` boolean field to the
`ProcessPdfWithOcrRequest` model, and updated the `OCRController` to
accept, pass, and handle this parameter. If enabled, the backend adds
the `--invalidate-digital-signatures` flag to the OCR command,
invalidating any digital signatures present in the PDF.

**Frontend and UI integration:**

- Added an "Invalidate digital signatures" option to the advanced OCR
settings in the UI, including a warning tooltip to inform users that
enabling this option will make the document's digital signatures
invalid.
- Updated the OCR form data builder to include the
`invalidateDigitalSignatures` parameter when submitting OCR requests.

**Localization and tooltips:**

- Added new translation strings and warning messages for the "Invalidate
digital signatures" option and its tooltip, ensuring users are clearly
informed about the consequences of enabling this feature.
