Pull request overview
Fixes duplicated img2txt output from AWS Textract by preventing both LINE and WORD blocks from being emitted as text blocks, so downstream consumers that concatenate all text/* blocks don’t double-count OCR content.
Changes:
- Filters out Textract
WORDblocks during response normalization to avoid duplicate text output.

fix an issue where
img2txtvia textract returning duplicate OCR resultcurrent

fix

so what's happening is, Textract by default will return LINE item and WORD item
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/textract/latest/dg/how-it-works-lines-words.html
currently we always output both resulting in the result being duplicated
notes:
in any case, right now this is sufficient for our usecase
user input image, they want to get string result, and we provide it to them without it being duplicated
