It seems like we could, from searching the web there's apparently a tool
called "sips" that is pre-installed on macOS. I just checked my machine
and I have it there.
AFAICT, you can't convert only one page with it, only the full page.
But it seems to be a hard requirement of a
`doc-view-pdf->png-converter-function' that we can specify a page number
to it, so I'm not sure how tricky it is to fit into what we have now.
Maybe someone more familiar with doc-view could take a look.
