Marius Mutu 74f7aefc26 feat(ocr): Implement persistent worker pool with SQLite job queue
Major OCR infrastructure improvements:
- Add persistent SQLite-based job queue for OCR tasks
- Implement worker pool with process isolation and auto-restart
- Add OCR engine selector dropdown (Tesseract/PaddleOCR) in upload zone
- Optimize Tesseract preprocessing based on benchmark results (8x faster)
- Add recognize_cif_optimized() with multi-strategy CIF extraction
- Add Romanian CIF checksum validation
- Increase Telegram long polling timeout from 10s to 30s

Squashed commits:
- feat(ocr): Implement persistent worker pool with SQLite job queue
- feat(ocr): Add OCR engine selector dropdown to upload zone
- perf(telegram): Increase long polling timeout from 10s to 30s
- perf(ocr): Optimize Tesseract preprocessing based on benchmark results

Optimized Tesseract Engine for OCR - SPEED + QUALITY OPTIMIZED
Performance optimizations (vs previous version):
- Single PSM mode (PSM 4) instead of multi-PSM (4 modes × 2 calls = 8x faster)
- Single Tesseract call per image (skip image_to_data for speed)
- Lighter preprocessing (no over-binarization)
- --dpi 300 flag for proper scaling
- OEM 3 (default LSTM+Legacy) for balanced speed/accuracy
Quality optimizations for Romanian receipts:
- PSM 4: Single column layout (optimal for receipts)
- Polarity correction: ensures black text on white background
- Language: Romanian only (-l ron) for faster recognition
- Fallback to PSM 6 if PSM 4 produces poor results
Previous issues fixed:
- Was 8x slower than PaddleOCR due to multi-PSM + dual calls
- Produced gibberish on clear PDFs due to over-binarization
