* fix(text): handle Tc/Tw character and word spacing in text width computation
PDFs using Tc (character spacing) and Tw (word spacing) operators for text
justification had words incorrectly split across TextItems. The computed
advance width didn't account for these spacing parameters, causing spurious
spaces mid-word (e.g. "deve lopers" instead of "developers").
- Add Tc/Tw operator handling and graphics state save/restore
- Incorporate char_spacing and word_spacing into compute_string_width_ts
- Add adaptive merge threshold: tighter for lowercase→lowercase junctions,
wider before joining punctuation
- Add unit tests for Tc/Tw width computation and merge behavior

* test(fonts): add large Tc width computation test
Verifies that large character spacing values are applied in full
without any artificial cap, matching PDF spec behavior.

* fix(text): guard against Tc/Tw-inflated widths in merge and join paths
Two targeted fixes to prevent character-spacing (Tc) and word-spacing
(Tw) inflation from causing data quality regressions:
1. should_join_items: reject large negative gaps (< -font_size) that
arise when Tc/Tw inflate item widths past adjacent items. Fixes
FY_2015 merged numbers (e.g. "239.696.0" → "239.69 6.0").
2. merge_text_items: cap effective width for gap computation when Tw
inflates space-containing items beyond 0.85× font_size per char.
Prevents column-level gaps from collapsing into merge range,
recovering table detection for Baldwin-Edwards and similar PDFs.
