feat: add OCR as fourth test type alongside Direct, Selenium, Google Calendar

- Add uses_ocr flag to SouthKestevenDistrictCouncil in input.json
- Simplify OCR image discovery to check self.ocr_image_dir, UKBC_OCR_IMAGE_DIR env var, and CWD
- Remove test/fixture references from main council module for clean separation
- Add pytest.mark.skipif to South Kesteven tests when OCR deps unavailable
- Update parse_calendar_images to prefer local images over downloads
- Fix fallback logic to only apply to specific postcode patterns
- All 32 South Kesteven tests passing

Resolves #1668
