Currently using a touchscreen with pdf.js doesn't work so well. In Firefox,
with apz.allow_zooming = false (default on current release/beta), it does a
reflow zoom which makes the UI elements bigger. And with apz.allow_zooming = true
(default on current Firefox nightly), or in Chrome, it does a smooth pinch-zoom
but that also scales up the entire UI. Neither of these is a particularly good
experience, so this patch just disables any multi-touch gestures. Touch-based
panning (which involves a single touch point) is left unaffected.
I obviously missed this during review, but currently `PDFViewerApplication._saveInProgress` is reset *synchronously* in `PDFViewerApplication.save`.
That was probably not intended, since it essentially renders the `PDFViewerApplication._saveInProgress` check pointless given that the actual saving is an *asynchronous* operation.
While this will obviously increase the size of the output of `gulp minified`/`gulp minified-es5` *slightly*, the resulting files are still a lot smaller than the non-minified builds.
See https://github.com/terser/terser#minify-options for information about various Terser options.
The original code would get a long sequence of miniscule "tick" values while
pinch-zooming, and each tick value would cause a 1.1x zoom. So even the smallest
pinch gesture on a trackpad would cause high amounts of zoom. This patch
accumulates the wheel deltas until they reach an integer threshold (with a
tweak of the scaling factor to make it feel more natural) at which point it
triggers the zoom based on the integer component of the accumulated delta. The
fractional part is retained in the accumulator.
Some fonts have loca tables that aren't sorted or use 0 as an offset to
signal a missing glyph. This fixes the bad loca tables by sorting them
and then rewriting the loca table and potentially re-ordering the glyf
table to match.
Fixes#11131 and bug 1650302.
- Initialize the `AnnotationStorage`-instance, on `PDFDocumentProxy`, lazily.
- Change the `AnnotationStorage` to use a `Map` internally, rather than a regular Object (simplifies the following points).
- Let `AnnotationStorage.getAll` return `null` when there's no data stored, to avoid unnecessary parsing on the worker-thread. This ought to "just work", since the worker-thread code *should* already handle the `!annotationStorage` case everywhere.
- Add a new `AnnotationStorage.size` getter, to be able to easily tell if there's any data stored.
Prior to PR 11601, the `disableCreateObjectURL` option was present on `getDocument` in the API, since it was (potentially) used when decoding JPEG images natively in the browser. Hence setting this option, which was done automatically using compatibility-code, were in some browsers necessary in order for e.g. JPEG images to be correctly rendered.
The downside of the `disableCreateObjectURL` option is that memory usage increases significantly, since we're forced to build and use `data:` URIs (rather than `blob:` URLs).
However, at this point in time the `disableCreateObjectURL` option is only necessary for *some* (non-essential) functionality in the default viewer; in particular:
- The openfile functionality, used only when manually opening a new file in the default viewer.
- The download functionality, used when downloading either the PDF document itself or its attached files (if such exists).
- The print functionality, in the generic `PDFPrintService` implementation.
Hence neither the general PDF.js library, nor the *basic* functionality of the default viewer, depends on the `disableCreateObjectURL` option any more; which is why I'm thus proposing that we remove the option since using it is a performance footgun.
*Please note:* To not outright break currently "supported" browsers, which lack proper `URL.createObjectURL` support, this patch purposely keeps the compatibility-code to explicitly disable `URL.createObjectURL` usage *only* for browsers which are known to not work correctly.[1]
While it's certainly possible that there's additional, likely older, browsers with broken `URL.createObjectURL` support, the last time that these types of problems were reported was over *three* years ago.[2]
Hence in the *very* unlikely event that additional problems occur, as a result of these changes, we can either add a new case in the compatibility-code or simply declare the affected browser as unsupported.

[1] Which are IE11 (see issue 3977), and Google Chrome on iOS (see PR 8081).
[2] Given that `URL.createObjectURL` is used by default, you'd really expect more reports if these problems were widespread.
Issue 4398 was fixed by PR 4437, however a test-case wasn't included as far as I can tell. Given that PR 12186 is now in the process of re-factoring that code, adding a test-case cannot hurt as far as I'm concerned.
With recent changes, these event handlers are now essentially identical. Hence a new helper function is added, to reduce unnecessary duplication (will also be helpful with upcoming changes).
These two classes are unsurprisingly quite similar, and with upcoming changes[1] the amount of (essentially) duplicated code will increase even further.
Notable changes:
- Collect shared functionality in the `BaseTreeViewer` class, reducing both current and future code-duplication.
- Reduce unnecessary duplication in the CSS rules, which will be particularly useful with upcoming changes.
- Tweak the attachmentsView to use links, rather than buttons, to simplify (primarily) the CSS rules.

[1] Once API support for "Optional Content" lands, I've got more-or-less finished patches to add viewer support as well.
While the parameter name (clearly) suggests that an `AnnotationStorage`-instance is expected, looking at the only call-sites that include the parameter (i.e. the `PDFPrintServiceFactory` instances) it actually contains just a normal Object.
Hence it seems much more reasonable to actually pass a valid `AnnotationStorage`-instance, as the name suggests, and simply have `PDFPageProxy.render` do the `annotationStorage.getAll()` call. (Since we cannot send an `AnnotationStorage`-instance as-is to the worker-thread, given the "structured clone algorithm".)
Do the `AppOptions.get("printResolution")` lookup once in `web/app.js `, when initializing `PDFPrintServiceFactory`-instances, rather than for every printed page
- Fix the `gulp types` task to run on Windows. Currently this fails, and the solution was to "borrow" the same formatting as used in the `gulp jsdoc` task.
- Place the TypeScript definitions in their own `types` directory, when building `pdfjs-dist`. These should *not* be cluttering the main `build` directory, especially since the generated TypeScript definitions consists of *multiple folders*. (Only if the TypeScript definitions would be concatenated into *a single file*, would placing them directly in `pdfjs-dist/build` be acceptable.)
