1//! TableFormer: table-structure recovery via docling-ibm-models, exported to
2//! ONNX by `scripts/install/export_tableformer.py`. The image encoder + tag-transformer
3//! encoder run once to a memory tensor; the decoder is then stepped
4//! autoregressively to emit an OTSL structure-token sequence (the same model
5//! docling runs). See PDF_CONFORMANCE.md.
