- Add ProgressTracker class for real-time progress parsing from mineru stdout
- Implement intelligent stall-based timeout (5min no progress triggers warning)
- Add vlm-direct backend mode to directly connect to vLLM server
- Improve API mode with streaming response, HTTP session reuse, and auto-retry
- Add heartbeat updates during long-running operations
- Support dynamic timeout based on page count
This addresses the deadlock issue where tasks hang indefinitely when using
MinerU API backend, even after the API returns 200 OK.

### What problem does this PR solve?
Add support for MinerU http-client/server method.
To use MinerU with vLLM server:
1. Set up a vLLM server running MinerU:
```bash
mineru-vllm-server --port 30000
```
2. Configure the following environment variables:
- `MINERU_EXECUTABLE=/ragflow/uv_tools/.venv/bin/mineru` (or the path to
your MinerU executable)
- `MINERU_BACKEND="vlm-http-client"`
- `MINERU_SERVER_URL="http://your-vllm-server-ip:30000"`
3. Follow the standard MinerU setup steps as described above.
With this configuration, RAGFlow will connect to your vLLM server to
perform document parsing, which can significantly improve parsing
performance for complex documents while reducing the resource
requirements on your RAGFlow server.

`mineru`.
Set `MINERU_DELETE_OUTPUT=0` to preserve MinerU's output, default is 1,
which deletes temporary output.
Set `MINERU_OUTPUT_DIR` to choose the MinerU output directory (uses the
temporary directory if unset).
