**Executive Summary**
Adds PDF functionality to capture hyperlink (external or internal) for
pdf fast strategy along with associate text.
**Technical Details**
- `pdfminer` associates `annotation` (links and uris) with bounding box
rather than text. Therefore, the link and text matching is not a perfect
pair but rather a logic-based and calculation matching from bounding box
overlapping.
- There is no word-level bounding box. Only character-level (access
using `LTChar`). Thus in order to get to word-level, there is a window
slicing through the text. The words are captured in alphanumeric and
non-alphanumeric separately, meaning it will split the word if contains
both, on the first encounter of non-alphanumeric.)
- The bounding box calculation is calculated using start and stop
coordinates for the corresponding word calculated from above. The
calculation is simply using distance between two dots.
The result now contains `links` in `metadata` as shown below:
```
"links": [
{
"text": "link",
"url": "https://github.com/Unstructured-IO/unstructured",
"start_index": 12
},
{
"text": "email",
"url": "mailto:unstructuredai@earlygrowth.com",
"start_index": 30
},
{
"text": "phone number",
"url": "tel:6505124019",
"start_index": 49
}
]
```
