[Feature Request] Precision Zoom and Fine Rotation (Deskew) for better document cropping #184

Description

@HAKOL-MILEMALA

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Yes. When documents are scanned slightly crooked, two issues occur that are currently hard to fix within the app:

  1. Dark/black borders often appear around the edges of the document.
  2. It is difficult to crop these borders out precisely because there is no option to zoom in on the preview screen while adjusting the cropping handles.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would love to see two features added to the built-in editor:

  1. Zoom during Crop: Allow users to zoom into the document preview so they can align the cropping boundaries exactly with the document edges and eliminate dark borders.
  2. Fine Rotation / Deskew: Add the ability to rotate the document by small degrees (e.g., slider or fine-tuning arrows) rather than just the fixed 90-degree steps, to straighten slightly tilted scans.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Currently, I have to export the files and use external tools or separate software to straighten and recrop the documents. Having this directly in your beautiful app would make the workflow seamless.

Thank you for maintaining this great app!
