Ridwan 5df8f3b33a Issue #995: unlock a restricted document with its permissions password (#1127) ...

A PDF protected with only a permissions (owner) password opens without
asking, restricted, and nothing let the user enter that password
afterwards: the security notice only led to a read-only Security tab and
the hint said to reopen the file with the password, which the app had no
way to do (#995, #1077).

Now the security notice and Document Properties > Security offer Unlock...,
and Change settings / Remove security on a restricted document ask for the
permissions password first and then carry on, as Acrobat does. The open
password is refused there.

- crypt: SecurityHandler::authenticate_owner accepts only the owner
  password and refuses a different file key.
- cos: Document::unlock upgrades the open document in place; owner and user
  passwords unlock the same file key, so nothing is decoded again.
- engine: Session::unlock (not an edit: no undo step, not marked unsaved)
  also unlocks the undo and redo states and reopens saves as owner;
  Document::can_unlock, EditError::WrongPassword, command protect.unlock.
- ui: the permissions password prompt shares the open prompt's modal; the
  notice and Security tab get Unlock...; the disabled-command hints no
  longer point at reopening the file.
- i18n: the new strings in all 15 full catalogs (catalog hashes updated).

Tests cover crypt, cos and engine (all four algorithms, wrong and open
passwords, undo, redo, save, removing security afterwards) and the UI
(notice flow, Remove security asking first).

Closes #995
Closes #1077
