Marginalia v0.3.1

Highlights

• Added provider call TPS limiting for LLM, embedding, and rerank requests,
  with runtime settings overlay support.

• DOCX and PPTX embedded images can now be described by the vision profile,
  queried with read_files(question=...), and persisted for fallback reads.

• PDF, PPTX, and DOCX image descriptions are inserted back into native document
  positions before indexing: PDF figures per page, PPTX images per slide, and
  DOCX images near their source block.

• Embedding request batch size is capped at 10 for desktop and backend
  settings.

• Text-layer PDF readback now includes persisted figure descriptions for
  targeted page reads and pattern searches.

• Existing invalid overlay values such as embedding_batch_size > 10 are
  ignored instead of overriding safe defaults.
