/**
 * Bahrain Law HTML Parser
 *
 * Parses legislation pages from legalaffairs.gov.bh.
 *
 * Bahrain laws are Word-generated HTML (MsoNormal classes) with specific patterns:
 *
 * ARTICLE HEADINGS:
 *   Pattern 1 (most common): Article heading split across two paragraphs:
 *     <p>...مادة...</p>    (standalone "مادة" or "المادة")
 *     <p>...(N)...</p>     (article number in next paragraph)
 *
 *   Pattern 2: Article heading in one paragraph:
 *     <p>...المادة (N)...</p>  or  <p>...مادة (N)...</p>
 *
 *   Pattern 3 (Gulf convention): "مادة N" without parentheses
 *
 * STRUCTURAL HEADINGS:
 *   - "الباب" (al-bab) = Book/Part
 *   - "الفصل" (al-fasl) = Chapter/Section
 *   - "الكتاب" (al-kitab) = Book (rarely used)
 *
 * Source: legalaffairs.gov.bh (Legislation and Legal Opinion Commission)

/**
 * Parse Bahraini legislation HTML using paragraph-level analysis.
 *
 * The key insight is that Bahrain laws from legalaffairs.gov.bh use Word-generated
 * HTML where article headings are often split across two paragraphs:
 *   <p>مادة</p>
 *   <p>(5)</p>
 *   <p>...article content...</p>
 *
 * This parser processes paragraphs sequentially and detects this pattern.
