The bug report seem to suggest that we don't support UTF-16 strings with a BOM (byte order mark), which we *actually* do as evident by both the code and a unit-test.
The issue at play here is rather that we previously only supported big-endian UTF-16 BOM, and the `Title` string in the PDF document is using a *little-endian* UTF-16 BOM instead.

Rather than having to store a `PromiseCapability` on the `ObjectLoader` instances, we can simply convert `_walk` to be `async` and thus have the same functionality with native JavaScript instead.
I happened to look at this code and the way that the link target is set seems unecessarily convoluted, since we're using `Object.values` and `Array.prototype.includes` for *every* link being parsed.
Given that the number of link targets are so few, the easist solution honestly seem to be to just use a `switch` statement to do the link target mapping.
When the end of data has already been reached for the various Streams, the `getByte` methods will return `-1` to signal that to the caller. Note however that the current position obviously won't be incremented in this case, meaning that the `peekByte` methods will in this case *incorrectly* decrement the position.
Thankfully the corresponding `peekBytes` shouldn't be affected by this bug, since they decrement the current position with the *actually* returned number of bytes.
I'm not aware of any bugs caused by this blatant oversight, but that doesn't mean this shouldn't be fixed :-)
This will allow us to attempt to recover as much as possible of a page, rather than immediately failing, when a broken/unsupported ColorSpace is encountered. This patch thus extends the framework added in PRs such as e.g. 8240 and 8922, to also cover parsing of ColorSpaces.
The code in question is *only* relevant in non-`PRODUCTION` mode, i.e. the *development* version of the viewer run with `gulp server`, and has been completely unused at least since SystemJS was added.
I really cannot see any reason to keep this, since it's code which first of all isn't shipping and secondly isn't even being used in the development viewer.
When `ReadableStream` support was added to the `MessageHandler`, the `_onComObjOnMessage` function became more complex than previously.
All of the nested `if`/`else if`/`else` branches are now, at least in my opinion, making some of this code a bit difficult to follow. Hence this patch, which attempts to help readability by making use of early `return`s and `Error`s.
The patch also changes a couple of `var`/`let` occurences to `const`.
Note that using `in` leads to unnecessary stringification of the properties, which seems completely unnecessary here. To avoid future problems from these changes the `MessageHandler.on` method will now assert, in non-`PRODUCTION`/`TESTING` builds, that it's always called with a function as expected.
This patch also renames `callbacksCapabilities` to `callbackCapabilities`, note the removed "s", since using a double plural format looks a bit strange.
Given that the `isReply` property is an internal implementation detail, changing its type shouldn't be a problem. Note that by directly indicating if either data or an Error is sent, it's no longer necessary to use `in` when handling the callback.
Currently, for data in `ChunkedStream` instances, the `getMissingChunks` method is used in a couple of places to determine if data is already available or if it needs to be loaded.
When looking at how `ChunkedStream.getMissingChunks` is being used in the `ObjectLoader` you'll notice that we don't actually care about which *specific* chunks are missing, but rather only want essentially a yes/no answer to the "Is the data available?" question.
Furthermore, when looking at how `ChunkedStream.getMissingChunks` itself is implemented you'll notice that it (somewhat expectedly) always iterates over *all* chunks.
All in all, using `ChunkedStream.getMissingChunks` in the `ObjectLoader` seems like an unnecessary "heavy" and roundabout way to obtain a boolean value. However, it turns out there already exists a `ChunkedStream.allChunksLoaded` method, consisting of a *single* simple check, which seems like a perfect fit for the `ObjectLoader` use cases.
In particular, once the *entire* PDF document has been loaded (which is usually fairly quick with streaming enabled), you'd really want the `ObjectLoader` to be as simple/quick as possible (similar to e.g. loading a local files) which this patch should help with.
Note that I wouldn't expect this patch to have a huge effect on performance, but it will nonetheless save some CPU/memory resources when the `ObjectLoader` is used. (As usual this should help larger PDF documents, w.r.t. both file size and number of pages, the most.)
I completely overlooked this in PR 11281, but you obviously need to make similar changes in `PartialEvaluator.hasBlendModes` since it will otherwise ignore valid Blend Modes.
This argument is a left-over from older API code, where we unconditionally initialized `StatTimer` instances for every page. For quite some time that's only been done when `pdfBug` is set, hence it seems unnecessary to keep this functionality.
Even though the currect situation only results in six unnecessary function calls per page, it nonetheless seems completely unnecessary to call dummy functions when `pdfBug` is *not* set (i.e. the default behaviour).
As can be seen in the API, there's a number of document loading Exception handlers which are both really simple and highly similar. Hence these are changed such that all the relevant Exceptions are sent via *one* message instead.
Furthermore, the patch also avoids unnecessarily re-creating `UnknownErrorException`s at the worker side and removes an unnecessary `bind` call.
Obviously this won't look exactly right, but considering that the PDF file doesn't bother embedding non-standard fonts this is the best that we can do here.
This patch is making me somewhat worried about future regressions, since it's certainly easy to imagine this completely breaking certain kinds of corrupt/edited PDF documents while fixing others.[1]
Obviously it passes all existing reference tests (and even improves one), however compared to many other patches there's no telling how much it could break.
The only reason that I'm even submitting this patch, is because of the number of open issues that it would address.
Generally speaking though, the best course of action would probably be if `XRef.indexObjects` was re-written to be much more robust (since it currently feels somewhat hand-wavy in parts). E.g. by actually checking/validating more of the objects before committing to them.

[1] Especially given that it's reverting part of PR 5910, however in the case of issue 5909 it seems that other (more recent) changes have actually made that PR redundant.
Sometimes we also used `@return`, but `@returns` is what the JSDoc
documentation recommends. Even though `@return` works as an alias, it's
good to use the recommended syntax and to be consistent within the
project.
Sometimes we also used `@return` or `@returns`, but `@type` is what
the JSDoc documentation recommends. This also improves the documentation
because before this commit the types were not shown and now they are.
Rather than specifying certain build targets manually, it seems much more appropriate (and future-proof) to use the `SKIP_BABEL` build target instead.
Also, the patch adds a missing `/* eslint no-var: error */` line since I'm touch the file anyway and no code-changes were necessary for it.
For badly generated PDF documents, with issue 6961 being one example, there's well over one hundred thousand function calls being made in total for just the *two* pages.
This handles the two different ways that fonts can be loaded, either by Name (which is the common case) or by Reference.
Furthermore, this also takes the `ignoreErrors` option into account when deciding whether to fallback or Error.
Finally, by creating a minimal but valid Font dictionary, there's no special-cases necessary in any of the font parsing code.

All of these methods have been marked as `deprecated` in *three* releases now, and I'd thus like to (slowly) move towards complete removal.
However rather than just removing the methods right away, which would cause somewhat cryptic failures, this patch tries to implement a hopefully reasonable middle ground by throwing `Error`s with (essentially) the same information as the previous warnings.
While the previous `deprecated` messages could perhaps be seen as optional, with these changes API consumers will now be forced to actually migrate their code.
*Please note:* I've been thinking about possible ways of addressing this issue for a while now, but all of the solutions I came up with became too complicated and thus hurt readability of the code.
However, it occured to me that we're essentially trying to add a heuristic *on top* of another heuristic, and that it shouldn't matter how efficient the code is as long as it works.
In the PDF file in the issue the Encoding contains glyphNames of the `Cdd` format, which our existing heuristics will treat as base 10 values. However, in this particular file they actually contain base 16 values, which we thus attempt to detect and fix such that text-selection works.
By utilizing a base "class", things become significantly simpler. Unfortunately the new `BaseException` cannot be a proper ES6 class and just extend `Error`, since the SystemJS dependency doesn't seem to play well with that.
Note also that we (generally) need to keep the `name` property on the actual `...Exception` object, rather than on its prototype, since the property will otherwise be dropped during the structured cloning used with `postMessage`.
