feat(parser): add HTML parsing support with scraper library

- Add scraper dependency for HTML5 parsing
- Implement HtmlConfig with customizable parsing options
- Create HtmlParser with heading hierarchy extraction
- Support metadata extraction (title, description, author, keywords)
- Extract content from various HTML elements (paragraphs, lists, tables)
- Add tests for HTML parsing functionality
- Update parser registry to include HTML parser
- Modify documentation to reflect HTML support

+//! Cross-Document Retrieval Strategy Example.
+//!
+//! This example demonstrates how to search across multiple documents
+//! simultaneously and merge results intelligently.
+//!
+//! # How it works
+//!
+//! 1. **Parallel Search**: Searches all documents in parallel
+//! 2. **Per-Document Scoring**: Each document returns its top matches
+//! 3. **Merge Strategy**: Combines results using configurable strategy
+//! 4. **Deduplication**: Removes duplicate content across documents
+//!
+//! # Merge Strategies
+//!
+//! - **TopK**: Take top-K results across all documents (default)
+//! - **BestPerDocument**: Take best result from each document
+//! - **WeightedByRelevance**: Weight results by document's best score
+//!
+//! # Usage
+//!
+//! ```bash
+//! cargo run --example strategy_cross_document
+//! ```
