Added use_cropbox parameter to rasterize_pdf_page hook to allow
choosing between MediaBox and CropBox rendering:
- Default is use_cropbox=False (MediaBox) for consistency with
Ghostscript's existing behavior
- Ghostscript: passes -dUseCropBox when use_cropbox=True
- pypdfium: calculates crop values to expand from CropBox to MediaBox
when use_cropbox=False
This aligns both rasterizers to produce the same output dimensions
by default, making the rasterizer choice transparent for page
geometry.

Add test_rasterizer.py with tests covering:
- Basic rasterizer option validation ('auto', 'ghostscript', 'pypdfium')
- Rasterizer + --rotate-pages interaction
- PDFs with nonstandard MediaBox/TrimBox/CropBox
- Direct hook tests verifying plugins respect the option
Also fix pluggy parameter passing: make 'options' a required parameter
(no default) in the hookspec so pluggy forwards it to implementations.
Update test plugins and test_rotation.py to pass the new parameter.

Add user control over which rasterizer is used for PDF page rendering:
- 'auto' (default): prefers pypdfium when available, falls back to Ghostscript
- 'pypdfium': force pypdfium2 (errors if not installed)
- 'ghostscript': force traditional Ghostscript rasterizer
Changes:
- Add rasterizer field with validation to OCROptions model
- Add --rasterizer CLI argument in the Advanced options group
- Update rasterize_pdf_page hookspec to pass options to plugins
- Update pypdfium plugin with check_options hook for availability check
- Update both plugins to respect the rasterizer option

Breaking change for PDF rendering plugins (although none are known to exist).
This provides better separation of Ghostscript specific concerns from
the generic plugin interface.
