*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.
The interface of all of the "image" streams look kind of weird, and I'm actually a bit surprised that there hasn't been any errors because of it.
For example: None of them actually implement `readBlock` methods, and it seems more luck that anything else that we're not calling `getBytes()` (without providing a length) for those streams, since that would trigger a code-path in `getBytes` that assumes `readBlock` to exist.
To address this long-standing issue, the `ensureBuffer` methods are thus renamed to `readBlock`. Furthermore, the new `ensureBuffer` methods are now no-ops.
Finally, this patch also replaces `var` with `let` in a number of places.
In the PDF file, the `ToUnicode` data first maps the hyphen correctly, and then *overwrites* it to point to the softhyphen instead. That one cannot be rendered in browsers, and an empty space thus appear instead.
Fixes 9084.
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.
Since we're already using core-js elsewhere in `compatibility.js`, we can reduce the amount of code we need to maintain ourselves.

This patch makes use of the existing `ignoreErrors` property in `src/core/evaluator.js`, see PRs 8240 and 8441, thus allowing us to attempt to recovery as much as possible of a page even when it contains broken XObjects.
Fixes 8702.
Fixes 8704.
*Follow-up to PR 8909.*
This requires us to pass around `pdfFunctionFactory` to quite a lot of existing code, however I don't see another way of handling this while still guaranteeing that we can access `PDFFunction` as freely as in the old code.
Please note that the patch passes all tests locally (unit, font, reference), and I *very* much hope that we have sufficient test-coverage for the code in question to catch any typos/mistakes in the re-factoring.
The `inline` parameter is passed to a number of methods/functions in `PDFImage`, despite not actually being used. Its value is never checked, nor is it ever assigned to the current `PDFImage` instance (i.e. no `this.inline = inline` exists).
Looking briefly at the history of this code, I was also unable to find a point in time where `inline` was being used.
As far as I'm concerned, `inline` does nothing more than add clutter to already very unwieldy method/function signatures, hence why I'm proposing that we just remove it.
To further simplify call-sites using `PDFImage`/`NativeImageDecoder`, a number of methods/functions are changed to take Objects rather than a bunch of (somewhat) randomly ordered parameters.
