- when binding (after parsing) we get a map between some template nodes and some data nodes;
- so set user data in input handlers in using data node uids in the annotation storage;
- to save the form, just put the value we have in the storage in the correct data nodes, serialize the xml as a string and then write the string at the end of the pdf using src/core/writer.js;
- fix few bugs around data bindings:
- the "Off" issue in Bug 1716980.
Given that the `bytesToString(BaseStream.getBytes(...))` pattern is somewhat common throughout the `src/core/` code, it cannot hurt to add a new `BaseStream`-method which handles that case internally.
First of all, while it should be very unlikely that the /ID-entry is an *indirect* object, note how we're using `Dict.get` when parsing it e.g. in `PDFDocument.fingerprint`. Hence we definitely should be consistent here, since if the /ID-entry is an *indirect* object the existing code in `src/core/writer.js` would already fail.
Secondly, to fix the referenced issue, we also need to check that the /ID-entry actually is an Array before attempting to access its contents in `src/core/writer.js`.
*Drive-by change:* In the `xrefInfo` object passed to the `incrementalUpdate` function, re-name the `encrypt` property to `encryptRef` since its data is fetched using `Dict.getRaw` (given the names of the other properties fetched similarly).
With the previous patch this functionality is now *only* accessed on the worker-thread, hence it's no longer necessary to include it in the *built* `pdf.js` file.
There's built-in ESLint rule, see `sort-imports`, to ensure that all `import`-statements are sorted alphabetically, since that often helps with readability.
Unfortunately there's no corresponding rule to sort `export`-statements alphabetically, however there's an ESLint plugin which does this; please see https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-plugin-sort-exports
The only downside here is that it's not automatically fixable, but the re-ordering is a one-time "cost" and the plugin will help maintain a *consistent* ordering of `export`-statements in the future.
*Note:* To reduce the possibility of introducing any errors here, the re-ordering was done by simply selecting the relevant lines and then using the built-in sort-functionality of my editor.
This simplifies/consolidates the ESLint configuration slightly in the `src/` folder, and prevents the addition of any new files where `var` is being used.[1]
Hence we no longer need to manually add `/* eslint no-var: error */` in files, which is easy to forget, and can instead disable the rule in the `src/core/` files where `var` is still in use.

[1] Obviously the `no-var` rule can, in the same way as every other rule, be disabled on a case-by-case basis where actually necessary.
* Move display/xml_parser.js in shared to use it in worker
* Save form data in XFA datasets when pdf is a mix of acroforms and xfa
