fix: incremental PDF page rendering for exam setup backdrop

Rendering a 36-page AQA exam PDF sequentially created 36 large canvas
elements, causing memory pressure and keeping pdfStatus='loading' for
60–120s in headless Chrome. Two changes:

1. pdfLoader.ts: reuse a single canvas (reduces peak memory from ~120MB
   to ~4MB) and fire onPageReady callback after each page so callers can
   stream pages to the canvas as they render.

2. ExamTemplateSetupPage.tsx: use the callback to add each PDF page
   shape to the tldraw canvas the moment it renders, making the first
   page visible within a few seconds rather than after all pages load.
