jpirnayandClaude Opus 4.6 fd70b3a231 Add paragraph index LUT for accurate KOReader position sync
Store per-page paragraph indices in section cache to enable precise
XPath-to-page and page-to-XPath mapping without reparsing XHTML.

Forward path (upload): generates XPath directly from paragraph LUT
instead of byte-offset estimation, eliminating drift in chapters
with non-uniform content density.

Reverse path (download): resolves incoming KOReader XPath p[N] to
the exact page via paragraph LUT lookup.

Paragraph counter counts all <p> elements including display:none
to match ChapterXPathIndexer and crengine's standard XPath counting.
