combine segments does not merge its lines #307

Description

Currently, when I combine segments, all lower-level information is lost (lines, text). That usually means a lot of follow-up work (esp. considering #306).

I can see that there might be other use-cases where this behaviour is economic, but often one just wants to avoid oversegmentation but keep all the lines (including their text content).

So I suggest always merging the lines (i.e. concatenating the existing lines in the reading order of the selected segments). One can still quickly remove all lines if necessary (but not the other way round).
