feat(klausur-service): OCR-Pipeline Optimierungen (Improvements 2-4)

## Improvement 2: VLM-basierter Dewarp
- Neuer Query-Parameter `method` für POST /sessions/{id}/dewarp
  Optionen: ensemble (default) | vlm | cv
- `_detect_shear_with_vlm()`: fragt qwen2.5vl:32b per Ollama nach
  dem Scherwinkel — gibt Zahlenwert + Konfidenz zurück
- `os`, `Query` zu ocr_pipeline_api.py Imports hinzugefügt
- `_apply_shear` aus cv_vocab_pipeline importiert

## Improvement 4: 3-Methoden Ensemble-Dewarp
- `_detect_shear_by_projection()`: Varianz-Sweep ±3° / 0.25°-Schritte
  auf horizontalen Text-Zeilen-Projektionen (~30ms)
- `_detect_shear_by_hough()`: Gewichteter Median über HoughLinesP
  auf Tabellen-Linien, Vorzeichen-Inversion (~20ms)
- `_ensemble_shear()`: Kombiniert alle 3 Methoden (conf >= 0.3),
  Ausreißer-Filter bei >1° Abweichung, Bonus bei Agreement <0.5°
- `dewarp_image()` nutzt jetzt alle 3 Methoden parallel,
  `use_ensemble: bool = True` für Rückwärtskompatibilität
- auto_dewarp Response enthält jetzt `detections`-Array

## Improvement 3: Vollautomatik-Endpoint
- POST /sessions/{id}/run-auto mit RunAutoRequest:
  from_step (1-6), ocr_engine, pronunciation,
  skip_llm_review, dewarp_method
- SSE-Streaming für alle 5+1 Schritte (deskew→dewarp→columns→rows→words→llm-review)
- Jeder Schritt: start / done / skipped / error Events
- Abschluss-Event: {steps_run, steps_skipped}
- LLM-Review-Fehler sind nicht-fatal (Pipeline läuft weiter)
