NixOS: pdftotext missing, read PDFs another way

On NixOS hosts, poppler's pdftotext is often not on PATH, so pdftotext file.pdf - fails with 'command not found'. When the PDF is generated from a source file in the repo (Typst/LaTeX), read the source instead. Otherwise use the Read tool on the PDF, or try nix run nixpkgs#poppler_utils -- ... style invocation (not verified here).
