jedarden 71872aaf73 feat(pdftract-1eaxm): implement libpdftract C FFI library
Implement the libpdftract native FFI library as a cdylib + staticlib
with cbindgen-generated headers and full extern "C" API.

Components:
- crates/pdftract-libpdftract/ with cdylib + staticlib targets
- All 9 contract methods + utility functions as extern "C"
- cbindgen config and generated pdftract.h header
- pkg-config template (pdftract.pc.in)
- Homebrew formula template (distribution/homebrew/)
- vcpkg port template (distribution/vcpkg/)
- C conformance test (tests/conformance.c)

API features:
- Owned JSON strings returned via CString::into_raw()
- Caller frees with pdftract_free() (not libc free())
- Thread-local error storage (pdftract_last_error)
- Thread-safe and reentrant (no global mutable state)
- ABI version function for compatibility checking

Verification:
- cargo build produces libpdftract.so and libpdftract.a
- Conformance test compiles and runs successfully
- Thread safety verified with 4 concurrent threads

References:
- Plan line 3477: SDK Architecture / The Ten SDKs
- Bead: pdftract-1eaxm
