[New Idea][Non Core] Document photo plugin (help wanted)

[UjjwalMahar]

So,This is about my idea of creating a Document photo scanner.

This is from my real life instance where we had a pile load of documents which contained passport size photos of candidates on the top right of the page and we wanted to extract photos from it.

What we did was first he scanned the document and then imported it in a photo editor then cropped photos from each document and obviously it took a lot of time.

So I wanted to create/write a program by which I can easily extract photos from a scanned document multiple at a time which would reduce the effort in future and I think will help many like my friend.

And I guess interacting with OMR Checker can boost it 10x.

1. I will be copying src/processor/CropPage.py and using it to extract student image from the document.
2. Then saving to the outputs folder.
3. Adding the path to result CSV file alongside OMR responses.

After discussion with @Udayraj123 on Discord call

Let's make it as a processor plugin first, later you can create your own project/repo for extracting photos. As there is no template needed in your case.

For plugin case, we need to preserve OMR responses and then add path to the extracted photo

[Udayraj123]

created a feature/extract-photo branch for this. @UjjwalMahar you can work on it in your own time.

[Udayraj123]

To think about generalizing - this plugin can also be used to scan barcodes or QR codes from OMR sheets in the future.

[Udayraj123]

Keeping this only in project board for now.

reopening for new contributors with an experience in Image Processing and also OCR to look into.

Note: the upgraded CropOnMarkers plugin supports this capability partially (selection of particular areas from template.json).
Currently in the branch feature/upgrade-crop-on-markers
