Return null when the current thread has no document.

If a caller constructs PDAnnotation directly and calls getStructElement() without a document in StaticResources, Line 138 throws a NullPointerException. getAlt() fails through the same call. Check the document before calling getStructTreeRoot(), consistent with the method’s null return for unavailable structure data.

Review comment at @src/main/java/org/verapdf/pd/PDAnnotation.java at line 138:
Update getStructElement() to check whether StaticResources.getDocument() is null
before calling getStructTreeRoot(), and return null when no document is
available. Preserve the existing null behavior for unavailable structure data so
getAlt() handles this case through the same call.
