M11: say redaction and export don't read Group 4 yet; Reduce File Size's descriptions

- Redaction doesn't decode CCITT, so a mark over part of an image the
  optimizer stored as Group 4 removes the whole image (nothing leaks),
  and Export ▸ Images refuses it. The optimize README and the
  mono-compression parity note say so. Later PRs of this stack add both
  (#4335 export, #4384 redaction).
- doc_reduce's description, Engine::reduced_bytes and docs/cli-batch.md
  now list the black-and-white step; docs/target-app-parity.md's
  optimize row gives the measured counts and no longer lists CCITT as
  missing; the M11 milestone row lists it as done.

From reviews with the pdfcraft-review skill.

Redaction cleans indirect and form structure references, preserving surviving form tags. Redaction retires inherited resource dictionaries, so a parent `/Pages` can't keep a removed XObject reachable; unredacted pages are left untouched. Image redaction removes alternate images and unsupported masks only on affected images. Changed marked-content spans lose replacement descriptions; untouched spans keep theirs. Hidden-text cleanup retires unused named descriptions across inherited/shared page and form resources (64 focused tests and scoped Rust 1.96 Clippy/wasm checks pass; publication CI pending).
