The *main* purpose of this patch is to allow scripting to be used together with the viewer components, note the updated "simpleviewer"/"singlepageviewer" examples, in addition to the full default viewer.
Given how the scripting functionality is currently implemented in the default viewer, trying to re-use this with the standalone viewer components would be *very* hard and ideally you'd want it to work out-of-the-box.
For an initial implementation, in the default viewer, of the scripting functionality it probably made sense to simply dump all of the code in the `app.js` file, however that cannot be used with the viewer components.
To address this, the functionality is moved into a new `PDFScriptingManager` class which can thus be handled in the same way as all other viewer components (and e.g. be passed to the `BaseViewer`-implementations).
Obviously the scripting functionality needs quite a lot of data, during its initialization, and for the default viewer we want to maintain the current way of doing the lookups since that helps avoid a number of redundant API-calls.
To that end, the `PDFScriptingManager` implementation accepts (optional) factories/functions such that we can maintain the current behaviour for the default viewer. For the viewer components specifically, fallback code-paths are provided to ensure that scripting will "just work"[1].
Besides moving the viewer handling of the scripting code to its own file/class, this patch also takes the opportunity to re-factor the functionality into a number of helper methods to improve overall readability[2].
Note that it's definitely possible that the `PDFScriptingManager` class could be improved even further (e.g. for general re-use), since it's still heavily tailored to the default viewer use-case, however I believe that this patch is still a good step forward overall.

[1] Obviously *all* the relevant document properties might not be available in the viewer components use-case (e.g. the various URLs), but most things should work just fine.
[2] The old `PDFViewerApplication._initializeJavaScript` method, where everything was simply inlined, have over time (in my opinion) become quite large and somewhat difficult to *easily* reason about.
Please note that these changes were done automatically, using `gulp lint --fix`.
Given that the major version number was increased, there's a fair number of (primarily whitespace) changes; please see https://prettier.io/blog/2020/03/21/2.0.0.html
In order to reduce the size of these changes somewhat, this patch maintains the old "arrowParens" style for now (once mozilla-central updates Prettier we can simply choose the same formatting, assuming it will differ here).
To avoid outright breaking third-party usages of the "viewer components" the `getGlobalEventBus` functionality is left intact, but a deprecation message is printed if the function is invoked.
The various examples are updated to *explicitly* initialize an `EventBus` instance, and provide that when initializing the relevant viewer components.
This patch makes the follow changes:
- Remove no longer necessary inline `// eslint-disable-...` comments.
- Fix `// eslint-disable-...` comments that Prettier moved down, thus causing new linting errors.
- Concatenate strings which now fit on just one line.
- Fix comments that are now too long.
- Finally, and most importantly, adjust comments that Prettier moved down, since the new positions often is confusing or outright wrong.
Note that Prettier, purposely, has only limited [configuration options](https://prettier.io/docs/en/options.html). The configuration file is based on [the one in `mozilla central`](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/.prettierrc) with just a few additions (to avoid future breakage if the defaults ever changes).
Prettier is being used for a couple of reasons:
- To be consistent with `mozilla-central`, where Prettier is already in use across the tree.
- To ensure a *consistent* coding style everywhere, which is automatically enforced during linting (since Prettier is used as an ESLint plugin). This thus ends "all" formatting disussions once and for all, removing the need for review comments on most stylistic matters.
Many ESLint options are now redundant, and I've tried my best to remove all the now unnecessary options (but I may have missed some).
Note also that since Prettier considers the `printWidth` option as a guide, rather than a hard rule, this patch resorts to a small hack in the ESLint config to ensure that *comments* won't become too long.
*Please note:* This patch is generated automatically, by appending the `--fix` argument to the ESLint call used in the `gulp lint` task. It will thus require some additional clean-up, which will be done in a *separate* commit.
(On a more personal note, I'll readily admit that some of the changes Prettier makes are *extremely* ugly. However, in the name of consistency we'll probably have to live with that.)
*This patch is based on something that I noticed while working on PR 10126.*
The recent re-factoring of `PDFFindController` brought many improvements, among those the fact that access to `BaseViewer` is no longer required. However, with these changes there's one thing which now strikes me as not particularly user-friendly[1]: The fact that in order for searching to actually work, `PDFFindController.setDocument` must be called *and* a 'pagesinit' event must be dispatched (from somewhere).
For all other viewer components, calling the `setDocument` method[2] is enough in order for the component to actually be usable.
The `PDFFindController` thus stands out quite a bit, and it also becomes difficult to work with in any sort of custom implementation. For example: Imagine someone trying to use `PDFFindController` separately from the viewer[3], which *should* now be relatively simple given the re-factoring, and thus having to (somehow) figure out that they'll also need to manually dispatch a 'pagesinit' event for searching to work.
Note that the above even affects the unit-tests, where an out-of-place 'pagesinit' event is being used.
To attempt to address these problems, I'm thus suggesting that *only* `setDocument` should be used to indicate that searching may start. For the default viewer and/or the viewer components, `BaseViewer.setDocument` will now call `PDFFindController.setDocument` when the document is ready, thus requiring no outside configuration anymore[4]. For custom implementation, and the unit-tests, it's now as simple as just calling `PDFFindController.setDocument` to allow searching to start.

[1] I should have caught this during review of PR 10099, but unfortunately it's sometimes not until you actually work with the code in question that things like these become clear.
[2] Assuming, obviously, that the viewer component in question actually implements such a method :-)
[3] There's even a very recent issue, filed by someone trying to do just that.
[4] Short of providing a `PDFFindController` instance when creating a `BaseViewer` instance, of course.
With `PDFFindController` instances no longer (directly) depending on
`BaseViewer` instances, we can pass a single `findController` when
initializing a viewer, similar to other components.
This removes the dependency on a `PDFViewer` instance from the find
controller, which makes it more similar to other components and makes it
easier to unit test with a mock link service.
Finally, we remove the search capabilities from the SVG example since it
doesn't work there because there is no separate text layer.
Now it follows the same pattern as e.g., the document properties
component, which allows us to have one instance of the find controller
and set a new document to search upon switching documents.
Moreover, this allows us to get rid of the dependency on `pdfViewer` in
order to fetch the text content for a page. This is working towards
getting rid of the `pdfViewer` dependency upon initializing the
component entirely in future commits.
Finally, we make the `reset` method private since it's not supposed to
be used from the outside anymore now that `setDocument` takes care of
this, similar to other components.
