Feature: Support Hidden list indicators

[caio-pizzol]

Summary

Support the "Hidden" font property (w:vanish) on list numbering/bullet indicators so they don't render when marked as hidden.

Problem

When a list indicator (bullet or number) has the Hidden font property set in Word, it should not be visible. SuperDoc renders all list indicators regardless of the hidden setting.

Repro

1. Open attached docx in SuperDoc.
2. All list indicators are visible, including ones marked as hidden.

Expected

List indicators with the Hidden font property are not rendered, matching Word's behavior.

Notes

The hidden property is w:vanish in the run properties (w:rPr) of the numbering run. This affects lists in the document body, structured content (SDTs), and tables.
