Release/v0.7.8 (#1662)
* Fix: Use correct URL variable for raw HTML extraction (#1116)

- Prevents full HTML content from being passed as URL to extraction strategies
- Added unit tests to verify raw HTML and regular URL processing

Fix: Wrong URL variable used for extraction of raw html

* Fix #1181: Preserve whitespace in code blocks during HTML scraping

  The remove_empty_elements_fast() method was removing whitespace-only
  span elements inside <pre> and <code> tags, causing import statements
  like "import torch" to become "importtorch". Now skips elements inside
  code blocks where whitespace is significant.

* Refactor Pydantic model configuration to use ConfigDict for arbitrary types

* Fix EmbeddingStrategy: Uncomment response handling for the variations and clean up mock data. ref #1621

* Fix: permission issues with .cache/url_seeder and other runtime cache dirs. ref #1638

* fix: ensure BrowserConfig.to_dict serializes proxy_config

* feat: make LLM backoff configurable end-to-end

- extend LLMConfig with backoff delay/attempt/factor fields and thread them
  through LLMExtractionStrategy, LLMContentFilter, table extraction, and
  Docker API handlers
- expose the backoff parameter knobs on perform_completion_with_backoff/aperform_completion_with_backoff
  and document them in the md_v2 guides

* reproduced AttributeError from #1642

* pass timeout parameter to docker client request

* added missing deep crawling objects to init

* generalized query in ContentRelevanceFilter to be a str or list

* import modules from enhanceable deserialization

* parameterized tests

* Fix: capture current page URL to reflect JavaScript navigation and add test for delayed redirects. ref #1268

* refactor: replace PyPDF2 with pypdf across the codebase. ref #1412
