# Description of Changes
Please provide a summary of the changes, including:
This PR refactors multiple instances of type casting throughout the
codebase by replacing them with Java's pattern matching for
`instanceof`. This approach eliminates redundant type casting, improves
code readability, and reduces the chances of `ClassCastException`. The
changes primarily affect authentication handling, PDF processing, and
certificate validation.
### Key Changes:
- Replaced traditional `instanceof` checks followed by explicit casting
with pattern matching.
- Improved readability and maintainability of type-related operations.
- Applied changes across security modules, PDF utilities, and image
processing functions.
This refactor does not introduce new functionality but enhances the
robustness and clarity of the existing code.
pending until #2818 is published

# Description of Changes
This pull request includes several changes primarily focused on
improving configuration management, removing deprecated methods, and
updating paths for external dependencies. The most important changes are
summarized below:
### Configuration Management Improvements:
* Added a new `RuntimePathConfig` class to manage dynamic paths for
operations and pipeline configurations
(`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/RuntimePathConfig.java`).
* Removed the `bookAndHtmlFormatsInstalled` bean and its associated
logic from `AppConfig` and `EndpointConfiguration`
(`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/AppConfig.java`,
`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/EndpointConfiguration.java`).

### External Dependency Path Updates:
* Updated paths for `weasyprint` and `unoconvert` in
`ExternalAppDepConfig` to use values from `RuntimePathConfig`
(`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/ExternalAppDepConfig.java`).

### Minor Adjustments:
* Corrected a typo from "Unoconv" to "Unoconvert" in
`EndpointConfiguration`
(`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/EndpointConfiguration.java`).

# Description
This pull request includes several changes aimed at improving the code
structure and removing redundant code. The most significant changes
involve reordering methods, removing unnecessary annotations, and
refactoring constructors to use dependency injection.
Autowired now comes via constructor (which also doesn't need autowired
annotation as its done by default for configuration)
