Feat: Native hierarchies for docx element types (#1505)
Improves hierarchy from docx files by leveraging natural hierarchies
built into docx documents. Hierarchy can now be detected from an
indentation level for list bullets/numbers and by style name (e.g.
Heading 1, List Bullet 2, List Number).

Hierarchy detection is improved by determining category depth via the
following:
1. Check if the paragraph item has an indentation level (ilvl) xpath -
these are typically on list bullet/numbers. Return the indentation level
if it exists
2. Check the name of the paragraph style if it contains any category
depth information (e.g. Heading 1 vs Heading 2 or List Bullet vs List
Bullet 2). Return the category depth if found, else default to depth of
0.
3. Check the paragraph ilvl via the paragraph's style name. Outside of
the paragraph's metadata, docx stores default ilvls for various style
names, which requires a complex lookup. This check is yet to be
implemented, as the above methods cover most usecases but the
implementation is stubbed out.
