When working on PR 13612, I mostly prioritized a simple solution that didn't require touching a lot of code. However, while working on PR 13735 I started to realize that the static `Name.empty` construction really wasn't a good idea.
In particular, having a special `Name`-instance where the `name`-property isn't actually a String is confusing (to put it mildly) and can easily lead to issues elsewhere. The only reason for not simply allowing the `name`-property to be an *empty* string, in PR 13612, was to avoid having to touch a lot of existing code. However, it turns out that this is only limited to a few methods in the `PartialEvaluator` and a few of the `BaseLocalCache`-implementations, all of which can be easily re-factored to handle *empty* `Name`-instances.
All-in-all, I think that this patch is even an *overall* improvement since we're now validating (what should always be) `Name`-data better in the `PartialEvaluator`.
This is what I ought to have done from the start, sorry about the code churn here!
*Please note:* This patch doesn't fix rendering of (various) patterns in browsers/environments without full `CanvasPattern.setTransform()` support, but it at least prevents outright failures and thus allows the rest of the page to render.
This patch provides a temporary work-around for Firefox 78 ESR[1], and for Node.js environments (see issue 13724), where rendering is currently completely broken.

[1] Please note that the `createMatrix` helper function doesn't actually work as intended. The reason is that it's not `DOMMatrix` itself which is unsupported in older Firefox versions, but rather calling `CanvasPattern.setTransform(...)` with a `DOMMatrix`-argument.
Furthermore, the `createSVGMatrix` fallback won't actually help either since that method doesn't accept any parameters and would thus require *manually* specifying the matrix-state; see e.g. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CanvasPattern/setTransform#examples
Finally, given that it's less than a month to the [Firefox 91 ESR release](https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar) and that as-is all patterns are completely broken e.g. when using the latest viewer in Firefox 78 ESR, I'm just not convinced that it's worth the "hassle" of providing a more proper work-around.
This way we ensure that these BBox values are *always* defined as expected for every `case`-block, and we also don't need to duplicate the lookup in multiple places. (Also, the patch removes a couple of unnecessary line-breaks in existing comments.)
Fixes https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/13691#pullrequestreview-702356627, which was flagged by LGTM.
- font line height is taken into account by acrobat when it isn't with masterpdfeditor: I extracted a font from a pdf, modified some ascent/descent properties thanks to ttx and the reinjected the font in the pdf: only Acrobat is taken it into account. So in this patch, line heights for some substituted fonts are added.
- it seems that Acrobat is using a line height of 1.2 when the line height in the font is not enough (it's the only way I found to fix correctly bug 1718741).
- don't use flex in wrapper container (which was causing an horizontal overflow in the above bug).
- consequently, the above fixes introduced a lot of small regressions, so in order to see real improvements on reftests, I fixed the regressions in this patch:
- replace margin by padding in some case where padding is a part of a container dimensions;
- remove some flex display: some containers are wrongly sized when rendered;
- set letter-spacing to 0.01px: it helps to be sure that text is not broken because of not enough width in Firefox.
With the changes in PR 13687 we're now checking if `target` is defined *twice* in a row, which shouldn't be necessary :-)
(I noticed this when glancing at the unofficial LGTM results; maybe we should re-evalute the decision to not integrate that into the CI.)
When XFA support was added, the size of the *built* `pdf.worker.js` file increased quite a bit. Hence I think that it makes sense to, where easily possible, do what we can to (slightly) reduce the size of the PDF.js library.
The supplemental font data files (added for XFA rendering), containing rescale-factors respectively widths, seem like an excellent candidate here since they're not particularly large in either line-count or file sizes.
In this patch these files are instead merged into a *single* file per font, rather than four different ones, and even with these changes the resulting source files don't become all that large.[1]
For e.g. the `gulp mozcentral` build, this reduces the size of the *built* `pdf.worker.js` file by more than `3 kB`. Given the overall simplicity of the patch, that kind of size decrease definitely seem worthwhile to me.

Previously, when we filled image masks we didn't copy over the current transformation,
this caused patterns to be misaligned when painted. Now we create a temporary
canvas with the mask and have the transform copied over and offset it relative to
where the mask would be painted. We also weren't properly offsetting tiling patterns.
This isn't usually noticeable since patters repeat, but in the case of #13561 the pattern
is only drawn once and has to be in the correct position to line up with the mask image.
These fixes broke #11473, but highlighted that we were drawing that correctly by
accident and not correctly handling negative bounding boxes on tiling patterns.
Fixes#6297, #13561, #13441
Partially fixes#1344 (still blurry but boxes are in correct position now)
- Fix a typo in order to open the pdf in issue #13679
- After fixing the fill default color there wer some regressions because of z-index
and when fixing z-index there were some regressions because of borders
- So fix the borders rendering.
The PDF.js API has only ever supported accessing the original file ID, however the second one that (should) exist in *modified* documents have thus far been completely inaccessible through the API.
That seems like a simple oversight, caused e.g. by the viewer not needing it, since it really shouldn't hurt to provide API-users with the ability to check if a PDF document has been modified since its creation.[1]
Please refer to https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#G13.2261661 for additional information.
For an example of how to update existing code to use the new API, please see the changes in the `web/app.js` file included in this patch.
*Please note:* While I'm not sure if we'll ever be able to remove the old `PDFDocumentProxy.fingerprint` getter, given that it's existed since "forever", that probably isn't a big deal given that it's now limited to only `GENERIC`-builds.

Please refer to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Workers_API/Structured_clone_algorithm
Based on that information, and manually testing our code, the implementation in `cloneValue` has the following shortcomings:
- Attempting to clone `function`s is only prevented when they're part of an Object, but is currently allowed when they occur standalone.
- Cloning of `Symbol`s is currently not prevented, which it should be since the native structured clone algorithm throws.
- Any disallowed types should be checked first, to reduce the risk of future changes accidentally allowing something that shouldn't be supported.
Using `instanceof Object` is generally problematic, since it's not guaranteed to always do the right thing for all Objects.
(I stumbled upon this while working on another patch, when I noticed that the `outlineView` was broken with workers disabled.)
- support paragraph margins, line height, letter spacing, ...
- compute missing dimensions from fields based almost on the dimensions of caption contents.
