This was added in PR 4470, but doesn't appear to have been used since.
While it's certainly easy to understand how this was helpful during development of that PR, actually providing this hash parameter isn't going to work anymore given that the original CMap files were also removed from the repository.
I suppose that the hash parameter *could* be useful if you'd attempt to update the BCMap files, however that hasn't been attempted even once in over *five* years time. Furthermore, at this point using the `AppOptions` directly in that situation should also work fine.
All in all, this seems like a piece of old and unused code which we can simply remove now.
This is based on a real-world PDF file I encountered very recently[1], although I'm currently unable to recall where I saw it.
Note that different PDF viewers handle these sort of errors differently, with Adobe Reader outright failing to render the attached PDF file whereas PDFium mostly handles it "correctly".
The patch makes the following notable changes:
- Refactor the `cropBox` and `mediaBox` getters, on the `Page`, to reduce unnecessary duplication. (This will also help in the future, if support for extracting additional page bounding boxes are added to the API.)
- Ensure that the page bounding boxes, i.e. `cropBox` and `mediaBox`, are never empty to prevent issues/weirdness in the viewer.
- Ensure that the `view` getter on the `Page` will never return an empty intersection of the `cropBox` and `mediaBox`.
- Add an *optional* parameter to `Util.intersect`, to allow checking that the computed intersection isn't actually empty.
- Change `Util.intersect` to have consistent return types, since Arrays are of type `Object` and falling back to returning a `Boolean` thus seem strange.

[1] In that case I believe that only the `cropBox` was empty, but it seemed like a good idea to attempt to fix a bunch of related cases all at once.
The current code will only consider the `cropBox` and `mediaBox` as equal when they both point to the *same* underlying Array. In the case where a PDF file actually specifies both boxes independently, with the exact same values in each, the comparison will currently fail and lead to an unneeded intersection computation.
By using the same internal formatting here as in the `Ref.toString` method, in `src/core/primitives.js`, all cache-keys will become at least two bytes shorter (and most three bytes shorter).
Obviously this won't have a huge effect on memory since there's only one cache entry per page, but it nonetheless seems wasteful to use longer keys than strictly required.
With the changes to the `StreamType`/`FontType` "enums" in PR 11029, one unfortunate result is that `getStats` now *always* returns empty Arrays. Something that everyone, myself included, apparently missed is that you obviously cannot index an Array with Strings :-)
I wrongly assumed that the unit-tests would catch any bugs, but they apparently suffered from the same issue as the code in `src/core/`.
Another possible option could perhaps be to use `Set`s, rather than objects, but that will require larger changes since `LoopbackPort` (in `src/display/api.js`) doesn't support them.
Firefox telemetry supports using string labels now. Convert our integers
that we used for categories to just use strings.

There's a number of spots in the current code, and tests, where `cancel` methods are not called with appropriate arguments (leading to Promises not being rejected with Errors as intended).
In some cases the cancel `reason` is implicitly set to `undefined`, and in others the cancel `reason` is just a plain String. To address this inconsistency, the patch changes things such that cancelling is done with `AbortException`s everywhere instead.
Currently the indicator may remain visible even after the document has been closed, which seems weird given that no page is either visible nor rendering :-)
Add a work-around, in `glyphlist.js`, for bad PDF generators which use a non-standard `/f_f` string in the `Encoding` dictionary when referring to the ff ligature (issue 11016)
This patch will not incur any (measurable) overhead, since the glyphlist is already quite long and one more entry won't really matter, which is important given that this sort of PDF corruption ought to be very rare.
Furthermore, this patch purposely does *not* add a bunch of similarly modified ligature names on pure speculation. Any similar additions, for other ligatures, should only be made if there's real-world examples of PDF files where that's actually necessary.
For very large and complex PDF files this will help performance slightly, since `EvaluatorPreprocessor.read` is called a lot during parsing in the worker.
This patch was tested using the PDF file from issue 2618, i.e. http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=226471, using the following manifest file:
```

"file": "../web/pdfs/issue2618.pdf",
"md5": "",
"rounds": 200,
"type": "eq"

This gave the following results when comparing this patch against the `master` branch:

Ensure that setting the `zoomDisabledTimeout` isn't skipped, regardless of the supported zoom keys, when handling mouse wheel events (PR 7097 follow-up)
*Possible follow-up:* It probably wouldn't hurt to try and shorten the `supportedMouseWheelZoomModifierKeys` name a bit, but I'm not attempting that here since it'd also require updating `PdfStreamConverter.jsm` in mozilla-central in order to be consistent.
For very large and complex PDF files this will help performance slightly, since `Parser.shift` is called *a lot* during parsing.
This patch was tested using the PDF file from issue 2618, i.e. http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=226471 (with well over *four million* `Parser.shift` calls for just the one page), using the following manifest file:
```

{ "id": "issue2618",

Remove an unnecessary `PDFDocumentProperties.setFileSize` call, relevant for the Firefox built-in viewer, and use the "normal" code-path in `PDFViewerApplication.open` instead
Since calling `getDocument` with a `PDFDataRangeTransport` argument will always unconditionally override a manually provided `length` argument, see a1a667809f/src/display/api.js (L390-L394), this patch should thus be safe.
Attempt to significantly reduce the number of `ChunkedStream.{ensureByte, ensureRange}` calls by inlining the `this.progressiveDataLength` checks at the call-sites
This functionality is very old, and pre-dates e.g. the introduction of the `EventBus` by a number of years. Rather than attaching two callback functions to every single `PDFPageView` instance, it's thus now possible to utilize the `EventBus` such that you only need a grand total of two listeners to achieve the same result.
For the `onAfterDraw` callback the replacement is particularly simple, given that a 'pagerendered' event is already being dispatched in the appropriate spot. An added benefit here is the ability to remove the event listener, since we only ever care about *one* (arbitrary) page being rendered for the `BaseViewer.onePageRendered` promise.
For the `onBeforeDraw` callback, a new 'pagerender' event was thus added to replace the callback.
Given that this special-case only matters for the Firefox PDF viewer, it's probably better to just move it into `firefoxcom.js` instead to reduce unnecessary confusion.
