Fix OCR on Qubes: PyMuPDF required TESSDATA_PREFIX
PyMuPDF versions lower than 1.22.5 pass the tesseract data path as
an argument to `pixmap.pdfocr_tobytes()` [1], but lower versions require
setting instead the TESSDATA_PREFIX environment variable [2].

Because on Qubes the pixels to pdf conversion happens on the host and
Qubes has a lower PyMuPDF package version, we need to pass instead via
environment variable.

NOTE: the TESSDATA_PREFIX env. variable was set in dangerzone-cli
instead of closer to the calling method in `doc_to_pixels.py` since
PyMuPDF reads this variable as soon as the fitz module is imported
[3][4].
