fix: disable chart recognition due to PaddlePaddle 3.0.0 API limitation

PaddleOCR-VL chart recognition model requires `fused_rms_norm_ext` API
which is not available in PaddlePaddle 3.0.0 stable release.

Changes:
- Set use_chart_recognition=False in PP-StructureV3 initialization
- Remove unsupported show_log parameter from PaddleOCR 3.x API calls
- Document known limitation in openspec proposal
- Add limitation documentation to README
- Update tasks.md with documentation task for known issues

Impact:
- Layout analysis still detects/extracts charts as images ✓
- Tables, formulas, and text recognition work normally ✓
- Deep chart understanding (type detection, data extraction) disabled ✗
- Chart to structured data conversion disabled ✗

Workaround: Charts saved as image files for manual review

+### Known Limitations
+
+**Chart Recognition (PP-StructureV3)**
+
+Due to API incompatibility between PaddleOCR 3.x and PaddlePaddle 3.0.0 stable, the chart recognition feature is currently disabled:
+
+- ✅ **Works**: Layout analysis detects and extracts charts/figures as image files
+- ✅ **Works**: Tables, formulas, and text recognition function normally
+- ❌ **Disabled**: Deep chart content understanding (chart type, data extraction, axis/legend parsing)
+- ❌ **Disabled**: Converting chart content to structured data
+
+**Technical Details**:
+- The PaddleOCR-VL chart recognition model requires `paddle.incubate.nn.functional.fused_rms_norm_ext` API
+- PaddlePaddle 3.0.0 stable only provides the base `fused_rms_norm` function
+- This limitation will be resolved when PaddlePaddle releases an update with the extended API
+
+**Workaround**: Charts are saved as images and can be viewed manually. For chart data extraction, consider using specialized chart recognition tools separately.

+## Known Issues and Limitations
+
+### Chart Recognition Feature Disabled (PaddlePaddle 3.0.0 API Limitation)
+
+**Issue**: Chart recognition feature in PP-StructureV3 is currently disabled due to API incompatibility.
+
+**Root Cause**:
+- PaddleOCR-VL chart recognition model requires `paddle.incubate.nn.functional.fused_rms_norm_ext` API
+- PaddlePaddle 3.0.0 stable only provides `fused_rms_norm` (base version)
+- The extended version `fused_rms_norm_ext` is not yet available in stable release
+
+**Impact**:
+- ✅ **Still Works**: Layout analysis can detect and extract chart/figure regions as images
+- ✅ **Still Works**: Tables, formulas, and text recognition all function normally
+- ❌ **Disabled**: Deep chart understanding (chart type detection, data extraction, axis/legend parsing)
+- ❌ **Disabled**: Converting chart content to structured data (JSON, tables)
+
+**Workaround**:
+- Set `use_chart_recognition=False` in PP-StructureV3 initialization
+- Charts are saved as image files but content is not analyzed
+
+**Future Resolution**:
+- Wait for PaddlePaddle 3.0.x/3.1.x update that adds `fused_rms_norm_ext` API
+- Or use PaddlePaddle develop version (unstable, not recommended for production)
+
+**Code Location**: [backend/app/services/ocr_service.py:216](../../backend/app/services/ocr_service.py#L216)
+
+**Status**: Documented limitation, pending PaddlePaddle framework update
