fix(tools): confine verify_pdf --dump-text and drop the bare pdftotext allowance

settings.json pre-approves verify_pdf.py with any arguments, and
--dump-text wrote the PDF's text layer to any path it was given,
creating missing parent directories and overwriting existing files.
Reproduced on master through the real CLI: a one-page PDF's text was
written to a new directory outside the repo with no prompt. The CLI now
writes only a .txt under the repo's cv/ or cover_letters/ (where
apply.md Step 5d puts it) and refuses a symlinked target.

Bash(pdftotext:*) is dropped for the same reason: Poppler writes to any
output path, and `pdftotext <file> -` prints any PDF on disk into the
session. verify_pdf.py already wraps it; the documented manual fallback
still works and now asks first.
