The PDF specification (cited below) specifies a maximum length of a name
in bytes as a minimal architectural limit. This means that PDF *writers*
should not create names that exceed 127 bytes.
It does not forbid PDF *readers* to accept such names though. These
names are only used internally to link PDF objects to other objects. For
these use cases, the lengths of the names do not really matter. Hence I
have changed the implementation to not treat long names as errors, but
warnings.

This became obsolete in bdeca30fbf. All it does is call the Annotation contructor and add hasHtml. This patch lets the Link and Text annotations directly extend the Annotation class and add hasHtml themselves.
This patch also removes an unused global.
This patch is the the first step towards to addressing issue 6158, which will be done by refactoring the code for setting/getting the current scale in `viewer.js`.
As explained in
https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/issues/6174#issuecomment-118502802.
To verify that this patch works:
1. Build the Chrome extension (node make chromium)
2. Load the Chrome extension (at chrome://extensions)
3. Visit https://robwu.nl/pdfjs/issue6174/.
4. Verify that PDF.js is not used to load the PDF. Either Chrome's
default PDF Viewer is used, or the PDF is offered as a file download.
Before this patch, zooming in/out via the scroll wheel caused the page
to be zoomed relative to the upper-left corner of the page, i.e. the
upper-left corner of the page stays at a fixed position.
After this patch, the page is zoomed relative to the cursor position,
i.e. after zooming in/out, the part under the cursor 'has not moved'.
This only applies when the page does not fit in the viewport, because
pages smaller than the viewpoer are always centered.
The patch adds a test to ensure that `getStats` returns the expected result after the page has been parsed, and cleans up the existing test a bit.
Also, since I'm touching the file anyway, I'm making a small adjustment of the `getDownloadInfo` test. (I have no idea why I didn't just write it like this initially.)
The reason that this code can be moved is that the `if (this.loading && page === 1)` check, in the `pagechange` event handler in viewer.js, is never satisfied since `this.loading` is not defined in that scope.
This *could* be considered a regression from PR 5295, since prior to that `this.loading` was using the `PDFViewerApplication` scope (or `PDFView` as it were).
However, I don't think that we need to fix that since we've been shipping this code in no less than *three* Firefox releases (uplifted in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1084158), without breaking the world.
An explanation of why the `pagechange` code works, despite `this.loading === undefined`, is that `set currentPageNumber` (in `PDFViewer`) returns early whenever `this.pdfDocument` isn't set. This check is, for all intents and purposes, functionally equivalent to checking `PDFViewerApplication.loading`.
Hence we can move the page switching code into `PDFViewer`, and also remove `PDFViewerApplication.loading` since it's not used any more.
(The `this.loading` property was added in PR 686, which was before the current viewer even existed.)
*Note:* The changes in this patch should also be beneficial to the viewer `components`, since requiring every implementer to provide their own `pagechange` event handler just to get `PDFViewer.currentPageNumber` to actually work seems like an unnecessary complication.
Recently I've landed a number patches which fixed issues with ColorSpaces. In most of these cases the cause of the failures were, either partially or entirely, related to the fact that we didn't resolve indirect objects (i.e. the code was missing `xref.fetchIfRef(...)`).
The purpose of this patch is to fix the few remaining cases where indirect objects *could* potentially cause failures.
Given that we have seen how this causes failures in practice, I thus think that it makes sense to try and avoid further issues, instead of waiting for users to file even more bugs for this part of the code-base.
This patch adds:
- Unit tests for the annotation border style class
- Regression test (self-made) for the annotation border style class
- Documentation generation using JSDoc
