[poppler] Why poppler, which supports tagged PDFs, doesn't recognize some of the tags as a whole?

Hi,

the joined `test.pdf` file is properly tagged as you can check it by
loading it at:

  ┌────
  │ https://www.ngpdf.com/loadFile
  └────

and then looking at:

  ┌────
  │ https://www.ngpdf.com/editor/editFile
  └────

You can see each line of the code:

  ┌────
  │ \pdfdict_new:n   {l_my_action_dict}
  │ \pdfdict_put:nnn {l_my_action_dict}{Type}{/Action}
  │ \pdfdict_put:nnn {l_my_action_dict}{S}{/URI}
  │ \pdfdict_put:nnn {l_my_action_dict}{URI}{(https://www.latex-project.org)}
  └────

is a single tag.

Nevertheless this code, if copied e.g. from Evince 3.38.1, is pasted not
as it is and but as:

  ┌────
  │ \pdfdict_new:n
  │ \pdfdict_put:nnn
  │ \pdfdict_put:nnn
  │ \pdfdict_put:nnn
  │ {l_my_action_dict}
  │ {l_my_action_dict}{Type}{/Action}
  │ {l_my_action_dict}{S}{/URI}
  │ {l_my_action_dict}{URI}{(https://www.latex-project.org)}
  └────

Thanks!
