Runs ocr on pasted images and posts result in details box.
This also allows the images to be searchable.
## How to Use
1) Install the 'Local Images Plus' plugin so that all pasted images get copied to a local folder (this plugin uses 'Meta/Attachments/' per default)
2) Make sure you have tesseract installed:
1) Head over to https://tesseract-ocr.github.io/tessdoc/Installation.html and download the installer
