A tagged/structured PDF carries a logical structure tree
(/Root/StructTreeRoot, /MarkInfo) that maps marked page content to
semantic elements via MCIDs. When --force-ocr rasterizes pages or
--redo-ocr rewrites the text layer, those MCIDs are destroyed or
renumbered and the tree is left dangling. We cannot rebuild it to match
the new text, so discard it for force/redo modes, following the same
pattern as the thumbnail and search-index discards. --skip-text leaves
text pages untouched, so their structure is preserved.
Also broaden the default-mode "looks born-digital" stop signal to fire
on /StructTreeRoot, not just /MarkInfo/Marked, so structure-tree-only
PDFs are no longer silently OCR'd. The existing --tagged-pdf-mode ignore
escape hatch is unchanged.
