Simplify `readObjectAtOffset` by splitting responsibilities into separate functions: `read_object_start` and a streamlined `readObjectAtOffset`. Remove redundant parameters and improve code readability, ensuring better modularity for object reading operations.

Converted multiple occurrences of `count()` to `contains()` throughout the codebase where the goal was to check key existence in containers. This improves code readability and aligns with modern C++ practices, particularly with C++20, making the intent more explicit and potentially aiding performance.

... and use it in QPDFWriter and QPDF::generateHintStream.

linearization parameter dictionary.

Spec states that that linearization parameter dictionary must be the first
object.

Add new private Util.hh header to define inline functions and expose as
ordinary functions in QUtil.

Except for virtual functions to avoid the need for users to update code.

This improves indentation of long strings. This commit also fixes some
trailing whitespace in ChangeLog.

Also, delay adjustments for compressed objects until needed by
linearization checks.

Also, remove redundant clearing of the xref tabl during QPDF destruction.
