Description
Feature Request
- add local ocr option on cpu only (using unlimited ocr, or paddle ocr) engines (optional installation)
- add image parser so calling it "anydoc" actually makes more sense
- example: anydoc [.jpg/.png/.webp/url]

Research direction
Start by tracing the Rust entry point used for existing document conversion and how input formats are dispatched. Investigate where image inputs such as .jpg, .png, .webp, and URLs could be accepted, and how optional CPU-only OCR installation would integrate. Done means local OCR and image parsing work without a mandatory OCR dependency and produce clean Markdown.
