FIX: Add fallback validation for CI environments without pdftotext

GitHub Actions validation failed because pdftotext is not available in the
Docker container, causing PDF text extraction to fail silently.

## Changes
- Add proper check for pdftotext availability using 'command -v'
- Add alternative validation method checking LaTeX source files
- Graceful fallback ensures validation works in all environments
- Clear warning messages explain when alternative validation is used

## Validation Logic
1. Primary: Use pdftotext to extract text from PDF title pages
2. Fallback: Check if version was properly substituted in .sty file
3. Both methods validate version synchronization worked correctly

This ensures the version synchronization safeguards work reliably in both
local development (with pdftotext) and CI environments (without pdftotext).
