This patch implements the page label functionality in a similar way as Adobe Reader.
For documents with page labels, if a non-existent page label is entered we'll try to fallback to the page number instead.
The patch also includes a preference (`disablePageLabels`), to make it easy to opt-out of using page labels if the user/implementor so wishes.
The way that `get/set currentPageLabel` is implemented in `PDFViewer`, is as wrappers for the corresponding `get/set currentPageNumber` functions, since that seemed like the cleanest solution.
The page labels are purposely *only* added to the page controls in the viewer UI, and not stored in e.g. the `ViewHistory`. Since doing so would mean adding unnecessary code complexity, without any real added value, and would also mean delaying the inital loading of PDF documents.
Note that this patch will ignore page labels if they are identical to standard page numbering, since in this case displaying the page labels adds no value (but only UI noise). The reason for handling this case specially, is that in practice a surprising number of PDF files include "pointless" page labels.
The following reasoning was used for deciding to remove the "Page: " label, and replace it with a tooltip, from the main toolbar:
- We have no other visible labels in the *main* toolbar (e.g. the Zoom dropdown doesn't have a label, but only a tooltip).
- We already hide the "Page: " label when the viewer is narrow.
- The varying width of the "Page: " label in different locales is already causing issues for many languages, with overlap in the main toolbar as a result.
Trying to create responsive CSS styles that works well in all locales is already difficult, and if we add support for page labels that will only further compound the issues.
- Some PDF viewers (e.g. Adobe Reader, pdfium in Chrome) doesn't show labels in the UI by default.
The outline toggle button has a feature where it can be double-clicked
to expand/collapse all items shown therein. Although this is described
in the FAQ, can go potentially unnoticed. This, however, being a useful
feature, advertise on the tool tip itself.

The logic for the hand tool is implemented in a separate project,
maintained at https://github.com/Rob--W/grab-to-pan.js
Integration notes
- Added toggle as an entry under the Secondary toolbar
- Added shortcut "h" to toggle hand tool (to-do: document this in wiki
after merge). This shortcut is also used in Adobe's Acrobat Reader.
To-do: localizations for:
hand_tool_enable.title=
hand_tool_enable_label=
hand_tool_disable.title=
hand_tool_disable_label=
To-do (wish): persistence of hand tool preference, preferably a global setting.

summary: create a new Exception class for missing PDF's, use it in place of generic
add new MissingPDFException to util.js
handle MissingPDF in api.js
handle MissingPDF in viewer.js, using new missing_file_error message
add new missing_file_error to l10n/en-US/viewer.properties
send MissingPDF from WorkerMessageHandler's loadDocument
send MissingPDF from GetDocRequest handler
* Act on throwing an Exception and InvalidPDFException by rejecting the worker
instead of throwing
* changed message for all builds
* alerting and closing window only for B2G builds
* invalid_file_error added to l10n (en and pl)
* UnknownErrorException added and used for every error()
