Having recently worked with, and reviewed patches touching, this code it seemed that it's probably not a bad idea to move that functionality into `createValidAbsoluteUrl` as new options instead.
For the `addDefaultProtocolToUrl` functionality in particular, the existing helper function was not only moved but slightly improved as well. Looking at the code, I realized that there's a small risk that it would incorrectly match a *relative* URL-string too.
With these changes, the `createValidAbsoluteUrl` call-sites in the `src/core/`-code can be simplified a little bit.
*Please note:* This patch may, indirectly, change the format of the `unsafeUrl`-property returned with relevant Annotations and OutlineItems; hence the `api-minor` tag.
However, I'd argue that it's actually more correct this way since the whole purpose of `unsafeUrl` is/was to return the URL data as-is without any parsing done.
- it aims to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1716758;
- some buttons have a JS action with the pattern `app.launchURL(...)` (or similar) so extract when it's possible the url and generate a <a> element with the href equals to the found url;
- pdf.js already had some code to handle that so this patch slightly refactor that.
- it aims to fix#14021;
- the N dict is empty here so just create a default one;
- it implies that the checked checkbox has no appearance so create a default one too in order to print it;
- in the pdf in the issue, a checked box is not printed because it has no default appearance so we need to guess its appearance from its state.
In order to implement this, we utilize the existing `bidi` function to infer the text-direction of /T and /Contents entries. While this may not be perfect in cases where one PopupAnnotation mixes LTR and RTL languages, it should work well enough in most cases.
To avoid having to add *two new* properties in lots of annotations, supplementing the existing `title`/`contents`-properties, this patch instead re-factors the existing code such that the properties are replaced by Objects (containing `str` and `dir`).
*Please note:* In order avoid breaking existing third-party implementations, `GENERIC`-builds of the PDF.js library will still provide the old `title`/`contents`-properties on annotations returned by `PDFPageProxy.getAnnotations`.
- In the pdf in issue #14071, some select fields don't contain any values;
- the corresponding node has a bindItems and a bind elements and _bindItems function was just not called.
In particular the `_processStreamMessage`-method is a bit cumbersome to read, given the way that the current streamController/streamSink is accessed, which we can improve with a couple of local variables.
After PR 11601, the `paintJpegXObject` operator is no longer used for anything. While I don't think we can just remove it, and essentially leave a "hole" in the `OPS` structure, we should at least mark it as explicitly unused to aid readability/maintainability of the code.
This replaces direct `document.getElementsByName` lookups with a helper method which:
- Lets the AnnotationLayer use the data returned by the `PDFDocumentProxy.getFieldObjects` API-method, such that we can directly lookup only the necessary DOM elements.
- Fallback to using `document.getElementsByName` as before, such that e.g. the standalone viewer components still work.
Finally, to fix the problems reported in issue 14003, regardless of the code-path we now also enforce that the DOM elements found were actually created by the AnnotationLayer code.
With these changes we'll thus be able to update form elements on all visible pages just as before, but we'll additionally update the AnnotationStorage for not-yet-rendered elements thus fixing a pre-existing bug.
*This is similar to the "isSymbolicFont"-property, which is no longer exported by default after PR 11777.*
Both "isMonospace" and "isSerifFont" are internal properties, used during font parsing and building of the glyph mapping on the worker-thread.
However both of these properties are completely unused on the main-thread and/or in the API, and accessing them they will now require setting the `fontExtraProperties`-option when calling `getDocument`.
Currently any AppOptions set using e.g. the "webviewerloaded" event listener can/will by default be overridden when the Preferences are read.
To avoid that happening the "disablePreferences"-option can be used, however unless it's been explicitly set all non-default AppOptions will be silently ignored. This patch thus attempts to improve the current situation somewhat, for third-party implementations, by logging a warning in the console when this happens.
With this patch we'll ensure that only valid absolute URLs can be used in XFA documents, similar to the existing validation done for "regular" PDF documents.
Furthermore, we'll also attempt to add a default protocol (i.e. `http`) to URLs beginning with "www." in XFA documents as well; this on its own is enough to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1731240
Rather than re-computing this value in a number of different places throughout the code-base[1], we can expose this in the API via the existing `PixelsPerInch`-structure instead.
There's also been feature requests asking for the old `CSS_UNITS` viewer constant to be made accessible, such that it could be used in third-party implementations.
I suppose that it could be argued that it's somewhat confusing to place a unitless property in `PixelsPerInch`, however given that the `PDF_TO_CSS_UNITS`-property is defined strictly in terms of the existing properties this is hopefully deemed reasonable.

[1] These include:
- The viewer, with the `CSS_UNITS` name.
- The reference-tests.
- The display-layer, when rendering images; see PR 13991.
Given the simplicity of this functionality, we can move it from the default viewer and into the `BaseViewer` class instead. This way, it's possible to support more scripting functionality in the standalone viewer components; please see PR 14038.
Please note that I purposely went with `increaseScale`/`decreaseScale`-method names, rather than using "zoom", to better match the existing `currentScale`/`currentScaleValue` getters/setters that's being used in the `BaseViewer` class.
