Style-boundary item splits can strand a trailing period in its own
fragment, and multiple assembly paths join fragments with spaces,
yielding "word ." artifacts. Rather than chasing every join site, a
postprocess pass removes a space before `.`/`,`/`;` when the mark ends
its token (whitespace, cell boundary `|`, or end of text follows).
Dot leaders/ellipses and mid-token periods are untouched.
Fixes the td9264 "companies ." artifacts and two pre-existing
"armoring ," artifacts in the 2013-app2 snapshot. pdf-evals: zero
markdown diffs across all 203 corpus PDFs vs committed baselines.

OR-merging underline stretched the eventual <u> span over neighboring
plain fragments. Merge runs now break on any style-flag change, the
redundant accumulator is gone, and format_list_item learned to move
bullet markers outside <u> wrappers so fully-underlined bullet lines
still render as markdown lists. td9264 snapshot regenerated — spans are
tighter (trailing periods correctly outside the tag).

Three formatting losses in the direct-extraction markdown path:
1. text_with_formatting gains <u> run emission (detect_underline option,
default on) using the geometric is_underline flag from 1.9.9.
Underline runs stay free of nested bold/italic markers — consumers
match tag content literally. Heading lines keep plain text for
bold/italic but preserve <u>: the tag carries meaning `#` doesn't.
2. merge_subscript_items now maps absorbed digit scripts to Unicode
sub/superscript forms with direction from the baseline offset
("H"+"2" -> "H₂", "word"+raised "2" -> "word²", "m"+"3" -> "m³").
NFKC/NFKD folds these back to plain digits so text matching
downstream is unaffected; renderers keep the script semantics.
3. merge_text_items no longer merges across bold/italic boundaries —
absorbing a styled run into a plain neighbor erased the styling
before markdown emission ever saw it. On eval docs this recovers
20-82 italic runs per document that previously emitted as plain.
Snapshots regenerated (diffs are the features: CCl₂F₂, m³, underlined
legal section headings, finer bold runs). pdf-evals regression suite:
202/202 real PDFs pass. napi 1.9.9 -> 1.9.10.

* feat(extractor): geometric underline detection on TextItem (ENG-5015)
PDFs carry no underline font flag — underlines are stroked horizontal
lines or thin filled rects drawn under the baseline. Correlate those
graphics (already parsed from the content stream) with text items in a
post-pass: a rule within ~0.35em below the baseline covering >=60% of
an item's width marks is_underline.
Exposed through the napi and python bindings. Verified on real docs:
4/4 underlined sentences flagged on a Japanese report, links/headings
flagged on 8 of 10 underline-bearing eval docs, zero flags on docs
without underlines. Known FP source (table cell borders) documented —
downstream applies inline styling only to plain-text regions.
napi 1.9.8 -> 1.9.9.

* fix(extractor): underline rules only from painted rects, normalized extents (review)
Two review fixes: (1) normalize rect extents before the thickness/width
checks — `re` operands pass through the CTM so width/height can be
negative, which missed negative-width rules and let negative-height
bands pass as thin; (2) only feed painted rects to underline detection —
`re` rects now wait in a pending list until a paint operator (S/s, f/F/
f*, B/B*/b/b*) confirms them, and `re W n` clip-only paths are discarded
at `n`, so invisible clip boundaries no longer underline nearby text.
Marking moved into content_stream where paint state lives (pre-rotation,
consistent device space).
