- In order to better compute text fields size, use line height with no gaps (and consequently guessed height for text are slightly better in general).
- Fix default background color in fields.
Given that we've over time been reducing the number of `compatibilityParams` in use, there's now few enough left that I think it makes sense to simply inline them directly in the `web/app_options.js` file.
Note that we recently inlined/removed the separate `src/display/api_compatibility.js` file, see PR 13525, and that it (in my opinion) thus makes sense to do the same in the `web/`-folder. This patch will also slightly reduce the size of *built* `web/viewer.js` file, which cannot hurt.
For code that's part of the core library, rather than e.g. the `web/`-folder, we should always be careful about *directly* accessing any DOM methods.
The `navigator` is one such structure, which shouldn't be assumed to always be available and we should thus check that it's actually present.[1]
Hence this patch re-factors the `navigator.platform` access, in the `AnnotationLayer`-code, to ensure that it's generally safe. Furthermore, to reduce unnecessary repeated string-matching to determine the current platform, we're now using a shadowed getter which is evaluated only once instead (at first access).

- an Image element was created, attached to its parent but the $globalData property was not set and that led to an error.
- the pdf in bug 1722029 has 27 rendered rows (checked in Acrobat) when only one was displayed: this patch some binding issues around the occur element.
This patch makes use of the existing `ignoreErrors` option, thus allowing a page to continue parsing/rendering even if (some of) its sub-streams are corrupt. Obviously this may cause *part* of a page to be broken/missing, however it should be better than (potentially) rendering nothing.
Also, to the best of my knowledge, this is the first bug of its kind that we've encountered.
To avoid having to pass in a bunch of, for a `BaseStream`-instance, mostly unrelated parameters when initializing a `StreamsSequenceStream`-instance, I settled on utilizing a callback function instead to allow conditional Error-suppression.
Note that the `StreamsSequenceStream`-class is a *special* stream-implementation that we only use when the `/Contents`-entry, in the `/Page`-dictionary, consists of an Array with streams.
There's no good reason, as far as I can tell, to explicitly define a bunch of methods to be `undefined`, which the current unconditional "copying" of methods will do.
Note that of the `OPS` ~23 percent don't, for various reasons, have an associated method on the `CanvasGraphics.prototype`.
For e.g. the `gulp mozcentral` command, the *built* `pdf.js` file decreases from `304 607` to `301 295` bytes with this patch. The improvement comes mostly from having less overall indentation in the code.
Apparently I didn't put one of the disable comments on the *correct* line, since I didn't read the instructions carefully enough, so let's try again.
Note that, most unfortunately, disabling of warnings isn't applied until *after* a patch has been merged.
The former prevents unintended errors in regexes. The latter is
something I ran into a couple of times before editors had proper support
for syntax highlighting in template literals, and it's an easy mistake
to make, especially when converting older code to use template literals.
Nowadays most editors display template literals in different colors, but
nevertheless it seems like a good idea to enable this rule.
Fortunately both rules don't require any code changes, so it's more for
prevention.
Most of the warnings we don't really care about, and those are simply white-listed using inline comments; however two cases prompted actual code changes:
- In `src/display/pattern_helper.js` the branch in question is indeed unreachable, and should thus be safe to remove. (This code originated in PR 4192, which is now over seven years ago.)
- In `test/test.js`, the function in question indeed doesn't accept any arguments. (The patch also re-formats a string just above, which didn't seem worthy of a separated patch.)
This now leaves only *one* warning in the LGTM report, however that one is a false positive that we'll need to report upstream.
In cases where even the very *first* attempt at reading from an object will throw, simply ignoring such objects will help improve rendering of *some* corrupt documents.
Note that this will lead to more parsing in some cases, but considering that this only applies to *corrupt* documents that shouldn't be a big deal.
There's no good reason, as far as I can tell, to have `PDFPageView.reset` attempt to cancel `annotationLayer`/`xfaLayer` rendering in one special-case (this is mostly a leftover from older code). Previously cancelling was moved into the separate `PDFPageView.cancelRendering`-method, and by slightly tweaking the conditions there we're able to remove a bit of now unnecessary code from the `PDFPageView.reset`-method.
Originally the `xfaLayer` wasn't implemented in such a way that it supported being removed from the DOM when pages were evicted from the cache, however this limitation was lifted in PR 13427 and the `xfaLayer` should thus be handled similar to e.g. the `annotationLayer`.
In addition to removing the `xfaLayer` from the DOM, this patch *also* implements proper rendering/hiding-handling for it (mirroring the `annotationLayer`-code).
*Please note:* This patch is tagged API-minor just in case[1], since it changes the signatures of a couple of `PDFPageView`-methods to improve readability of the code.

[1] Although users are *hopefully* not directly accessing any of the affected methods, and are rather using e.g. `PDFViewer` in which case none of these changes will matter.
Bug 1721218 has a shading pattern that was used thousands of times.
To improve performance of this PDF:
- add a cache for patterns in the evaluator and only send the IR form once
to the main thread (this also makes caching in canvas easier)
- cache the created canvas radial/axial patterns
- for shading fill radial/axial use the pattern directly instead of creating temporary
canvas
- a rectangle can be defined after a field and so from a z-index pov, it's on top of the field, which means that the rectangle avoid to have some mouse events in the fields;
- so this patch just disable pointer events for all elements under svg (included).
Given that PR 13772 seem to have worked as intended, it probably cannot hurt to enable the LGTM report for *most* of the remaining code in the `test`-folder. (The one remaining exception is code which originated *outside* of the PDF.js project.)
*Please note:* We'll need to land this patch to actually see any difference in the LGTM results.
Currently the `!mergeSubDicts` code-path is essentially just duplicated code, which we can easily avoid by simply moving that check. (This may lead to ever so slightly more parsing for this case, but the difference ought to be negligible in practice.)
By default all files/folders classified as test-code are excluded in the LGTM report, however I do believe that it makes sense to include at least the `font`/`integration`/`unit`-test folders.
It seems pretty obvious that you want to avoid *accidentally* introducing any simple logical errors in the tests (and not only in the main code), to ensure that e.g. the unit-tests actually test the desired thing.
Hopefully I've interpreted the information at https://lgtm.com/help/lgtm/customizing-file-classification correctly, however note that we may need to land this patch to actually see any difference in the results.
- in real life some xfa contains xml like <xfa:data><xfa:Foo><xfa:Bar>...</xfa:data>
since there are no Foo or Bar in the xfa namespace the JS representation are empty
and that leads to errors.
- so the idea is to make all nodes under xfa:data namespace agnostic which means
that ns are removed from nodes in the parser but only xfa:data descendants.
*Please note:* The PDF document in issue 13751 is *dynamically* created (in e.g. Adobe Reader), with pages added when certain buttons are clicked, hence this patch simply fixes the breaking error and nothing more.
It looks like the current code contains a little bit too much copy-and-paste from the *similar* `index` branch above, since we cannot set the `startIndex` to a negative value. Note how it's being used to initialize the loop-variable, which is then used to lookup values in an Array and accessing the `-1`th element of an Array obviously makes no sense.
