Please note that this patch is purposely quite basic, e.g. it doesn't add the polyfill-CSS in order to simplify the build process, and things such as `::backdrop` thus isn't working.
However, this patch does ensure that older browsers can at least still *access* all of the previous overlays and that things like e.g. opening of password-protected documents respectively printing still works.
This will hopefully improve the a11y a little bit in these dialogs, however there's most definately more things that can be done here (by someone more knowledgeable about a11y).
This way we're able to store the `<dialog>` elements directly, which removes the need to use manually specified name-strings thus simplifying both the `OverlayManager` itself and its calling code.
This replaces our *custom* overlays with standard `<dialog>` DOM elements, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/dialog, thus simplifying the related CSS, HTML, and JavaScript code.
With these changes, some of the functionality of the `OverlayManager` class is now handled natively (e.g. `Esc` to close the dialog). However, since we still need to be able to prevent dialogs from overlaying one another, it still makes sense to keep this functionality (as far as I'm concerned).
PDFScriptingManager uses the `mousedown` and `mouseup` listeners to keep
track of whether the mouse pointer is pressed in the `isDown` flag.
These listeners were registered to run during the bubbling phase of the
event dispatch, which can be interrupted if any of the previous event
listeners stopped the event propagation. An example of that is by
`GrabToPan` in web/grab_to_pan.js.
Since the mousedown (and mouseup) listeners of PDFScriptingManager are
free of side effects, and the intention is to always run them, it makes
most sense to register them with the capture flag.
- it aims to fix issue #14627;
- the basic idea of the recent text refactoring was to only consider the rendered visible whitespaces.
But sometimes, the heuristics aren't correct and although some whitespaces are in the text stream
they weren't in the text chunks because they were too small. Hence we added some exceptions, for example,
we always add a whitespace when it is between two non-whitespace chars but only when in the same Tj.
So basically, this patch removes the constraint to have the chars in the same Tj
(in using a circular buffer to save the two last chars) but don't add a space when the visible space is really
too small (hence `NOT_A_SPACE_FACTOR`).
Given that the textLayer-code has been using a `DocumentFragment` ever since PR 3356 (back in 2013), simply updating the type of the `container` property should be fine.
This patch also tries to, ever so slightly, improve the grammar of a couple of other properties in the typedef.
After the recent round of patches, I figured that we'd gone as far as possible in replacing `dir`-dependent CSS rules for the viewer.
However, it occurred that me that we could actually use a bit of CSS-trickery to get rid of the remaining ones. More specifically, this was done by defining a CSS variable whose value depends on the document direction and then using that variable together with `calc()` in the affected rules.
*Please note:* I suppose that this could perhaps be seen as a bit too "magical", hence I understand if this patch is ultimately rejected, however this is probably the only simple way to get rid of the remaining `dir`-dependent CSS rules.
The old code would allow an overlay to force close *itself*, before immediately re-opening itself, which actually isn't very helpful in practice since that won't re-run any overlay-specific initialization code.
Given how the overlays are being used this really shouldn't have caused any issues, but it's a bug that we should fix nonetheless.
There's a couple of `getDocument` parameters that should be numbers, but which are currently not *fully* validated to prevent issues elsewhere in the code-base.
Also, improves validation of the `ownerDocument` parameter since we currently accept more-or-less anything here.

*Please note:* This is another step in what will, time permitting, become a series of patches to simplify/modernize the viewer CSS.
Rather than having to manually specify ltr/rtl-specific float-values in the CSS, we can use logical `inline-start`/`inline-end` instead (and similar for some related left/right occurrences).
These logical properties depend on, among other things, the direction of the HTML document which we *always* specify in the viewer.
Given that most of these logical CSS properties are fairly new, and that cross-browser support is thus somewhat limited (see below), we rely on PostCSS plugins in order to support this in the GENERIC viewer.

Currently we're resolving the Promises in the `_extractTextPromises` Array with the page-index, despite that not really being necessary since the Promises in the Array are explicitly inserted in the correct order.
Furthermore, we can replace the standard `for`-loop with a `for...of`-loop which results in ever so slightly more compact code.
This patch removes the existing `forEach` methods, in favor of making the classes properly iterable instead. Given that the classes are using a `Set` respectively a `Map` internally, implementing this is very easy/efficient and allows us to simplify some existing code.
Rather than *manually* specifying a "mode", we can simply use the regular `defines` directly instead. To improve consistency, in the `external/builder/builder.js` file, a couple of parameters are also re-named.
Given that we now only use Workers when `postMessage` transfers are supported, there's really no point in trying to send a "test" message *without* transfers present.
Hence, if `postMessage` transfers are not supported by the browser, we'll now fallback to "fake" Workers immediately instead. The comment about Opera is also removed, since it was originally added back in PR 983 and mentions Opera `11.60` [which was released in 2011](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Opera_web_browser#Version_11).
Given that none of these methods were ever intended to be accessed directly from the outside, we can use modern ECMAScript features to ensure that they are indeed private.
This patch also makes `fieldData` private, to remove the old hack used to prevent it from being modified from the outside.
Given that we're now *building* the `web/viewer.css` file used in the development viewer, i.e. with `gulp server`, we no longer need to hard-code these `-webkit`-prefixed rules and can instead let Autoprefixer handle that for us.
To allow using modern CSS features that currently only Mozilla Firefox supports[1], while still enabling development/testing in recent Google Chrome versions, we'll have to start building the `web/viewer.css` file with `gulp server` as well.
In my testing, building the development CSS (and copying the images) takes *less than* `200 ms` on average which is hopefully an acceptable overhead for this sort of feature.
