Please note that while this could be considered a regression in user-facing behaviour, I'm not convinced that it's really a regression as such since prior to PR 8912 the Metadata would fail to parse (with an XML error) and thus be ignored when setting the viewer title.
With the refactored Metadata parsing we're now able to parse this, which uncovered issues with a subset of broken Ghostscript Metadata that uses HTML character names.

Unless the debugging tools (i.e. `PDFBug`) are enabled, or the `browsertest` is running, the `PDFPageProxy.stats` aren't actually used for anything.
Rather than initializing unnecessary `StatTimer` instances, we can simply re-use *one* dummy class (with static methods) for every page. Note that by using a dummy `StatTimer` in this way, rather than letting `PDFPageProxy.stats` be undefined, we don't need to guard *every* single stats collection callsite.
Since it wouldn't make much sense to attempt to use `PDFPageProxy.stats` when stat collection is disabled, it was instead changed to a "private" property (i.e. `PDFPageProxy._stats`) and a getter was added for accessing `PDFPageProxy.stats`. This getter will now return `null` when stat collection is disabled, making that case easy to handle.
For benchmarking purposes, the test-suite used to re-create the `StatTimer` after loading/rendering each page. However, modifying properties on various API code from the outside in this way seems very error-prone, and is an anti-pattern that we really should avoid at all cost. Hence the `PDFPageProxy.cleanup` method was modified to accept an optional parameter, which will take care of resetting `this.stats` when necessary, and `test/driver.js` was updated accordingly.
Finally, a tiny bit more validation was added on the viewer side, to ensure that all the code we're attempting to access is defined when handling `PDFPageProxy` stats.
*This patch is the result of me starting to look into moving parameters from `PDFJS` into `getDocument` and other API methods.*
When familiarizing myself with the code, the signatures of the various network streams seemed to be unnecessarily cumbersome since `disableRange` is currently handled separately from other parameters.
I'm assuming that the explanation for this is probably "for historical reasons", as is often the case. Hence I'd like to clean this up *before* we start the larger, and more invasive, `PDFJS` parameter re-factoring.
Nothing uses this option anymore, so setting it is a no-op now. We can
safely remove it.
Use `SKIP_BABEL` (instead of `PDFJS_NEXT`) now if you want to skip Babel
translation for a build.
I don't have a good example at hand right know, but I recall seeing custom deployments of PDF.js that bundle a *specific* version of the `build/pdf.js` file and then set `PDFJS.workerSrc` to point to https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/build/pdf.worker.js.
That practice seems really bad since, besides (obviously) causing unnecessary server load, it will very quickly result in a version mismatch between the `pdf.js` and `pdf.worker.js` files in those PDF.js deployments.
Such a version mismatch could easily lead to either breaking errors, or even worse slightly inconsistent behaviour for an API call (if the API -> Worker interface changes, which does happen from time to time).
To avoid the problems described above, I'm thus proposing that we enforce that the versions of the `pdf.js` and `pdf.worker.js` files must always match.
The `DOMParser` is most likely overkill and may be less secure.
Moreover, it is not supported in Node.js environments.
This patch replaces the `DOMParser` with a simple XML parser. This
should be faster and gives us Node.js support for free. The simple XML
parser is a port of the one that existed in the examples folder with a
small regex fix to make the parsing work correctly.
The unit tests are extended for increased test coverage of the metadata
code. The new method `getAll` is provided so the example does not have
to access internal properties of the object anymore.
Currently `PDFFunction` is implemented (basically) like a class with only `static` methods. Since it's used directly in a number of different `src/core/` files, attempting to pass in `isEvalSupported` would result in code that's *very* messy, not to mention difficult to maintain (since *every* single `PDFFunction` method call would need to include a `isEvalSupported` argument).
Rather than having to wait for a possible re-factoring of `PDFFunction` that would avoid the above problems by design, it probably makes sense to at least set `isEvalSupported` globally for `PDFFunction`.
Please note that there's one caveat with this solution: If `PDFJS.getDocument` is used to open multiple files simultaneously, with *different* `PDFJS.isEvalSupported` values set before each call, then the last one will always win.
However, that seems like enough of an edge-case that we shouldn't have to worry about it. Besides, since we'll also test that `eval` is actually supported, it should be fine.
Fixes 5573.
