Read a long Doc in line ranges with `offset` and `limit`.

 3. Read the doc, then call `worktable_docs_write` action `edit` with `oldText` copied exactly from the read content. Include enough surrounding text to match once. On `ambiguous` or `no_match`, read again; never guess. Use `write` with `expectedRevision` only to restructure a whole document.
 4. Use action `write` without a revision only for a genuinely new Doc. Never set `force` to drop formatting unless the user explicitly accepts the loss.
