fix(tasks): skip duplicate check when reprocessing and enable retry from failed pipeline step

- Add file_id parameter to process_document to skip duplicate hash check on reprocess
- Pass file_id from reprocess_single_file and bulk_reprocess_files endpoints
- Extend retry-subtask endpoint to support pipeline steps (process_document,
  process_with_azure_document_intelligence, extract_metadata_with_gpt,
  embed_metadata_into_pdf) in addition to upload tasks
- Add retry button for failed main pipeline steps in file detail UI
- Add comprehensive tests for reprocessing and pipeline step retry
