remove annotations from separated pages

The problem is the usage of page annotations: Because page annotations have
references to the page which have a reference to the parent and so on and so on
all objects become marked and are written to the output file, and it takes a
lot of time because we get endless loops and it takes a while after the endless
loop detection fires.
Pdfseparate is just a small tool to separate single pages, and I think we can
live with the fact that annoations are removed. Since acroforms can reference
in their fields also annotations, I removed the acroform entry, too.

@Albert: if You want to test the patch yourself I think I can forward the mail
from Cory.
