Fix AttributeError: tokenizer has no attribute additional_special_tokens
Verified signaturetransformers v5 renamed `additional_special_tokens` to `extra_special_tokens` (MIGRATION_GUIDE_V5.md: "additional_special_tokens: Automatically converted to extra_special_tokens during initialization"). Florence2Processor.__init__ still read the old attribute, raising AttributeError on transformers v5. Falls back to the old attribute when the new one isn't present, so this works on both v4 and v5. Bundled into this PR rather than opened separately since it's the same root cause (Florence-2 remote code predating the v5 migration) as the forced_bos_token_id fix already in this PR.6afac77
