EthanHealy01 c9bf436895 couple of small fixes for text editor (#5155)
# Description of Changes

- Workbench.tsx: Allow PDF text editor to handle it's own custom state
(this is a bit of a hotfix, we're going to handle the PDF text editors
file upload flow better in a future PR).
- PdfTextEditorView.tsx: Added a dropzone and some helper text to upload
the first file.
- PdfTextEditorView.tsx: Hide document view when isConverting is true.
Prevents showing stale content from previous file during conversion.
- useTranslatedToolRegistry.tsx: Moved PDF Text Editor to top of
Recommended tools list. Increased visibility of the new feature.
- PdfTextEditor.tsx: Removed auto-navigation to PDF Editor workbench on
file selection. Stops the "jumpy" behavior when selecting files.
- HomePage.tsx: Check specifically for pdfTextEditor tool instead of any
custom workbench. Prevents auto-switch to viewer when uploading files
while in PDF Text Editor.
