Since the Autoprefixer plugin indirectly depends on this, it seems like a good idea to add this as a direct dependency in the PDF.js project to hopefully avoid having to manually update `caniuse-lite` in the future; see https://github.com/browserslist/browserslist#browsers-data-updating
Also, slightly tweaks the Autoprefixer config for GENERIC-builds of the PDF.js library; note that this change doesn't affect the contents of the *built* `web/viewer.js` file.
The "External: Promise"-page in the JSDocs pre-dates the introduction of `Promise`s, as a generally available standard JS feature, by a number of years. Hence it now longer seems necessary, as far as I can tell, to include this "special" page in the documentation.
Also, while unrelated to the rest of the patch, updates the `test/`-folder description in the documentation.
The call-sites are replaced by direct `typeof`-checks instead, which removes unnecessary function calls. Note that in the `src/`-folder we already had more `typeof`-cases than `isString`-calls.
This removes the `DocumentInfoValidators` structure, and thus (slightly) simplifies the code overall. With these changes we only have to iterate through, and validate, the actually available Dictionary entries.
- Scroll the selected reference into view (makes it easier to tell which pdf you're looking at)
- Show the keyboard shortcuts (easier for new people)
- Keep the test/ref controls visible (if you scroll you can now tell if you're looking at a test or ref)
Sometimes I get a "Unable to find target with id XXX closeTarget..." error
when running tests which happens when test.js tries to close all the
open pages. I haven't been able to fully verify since this is intermittent,
but I think this is coming from us closing the window in driver.js and also
trying to close it in test.js.

- previously we were trying to adjust lineWidth to have something correct after the current transform is applied but this approach was not correct because finally the pixel is rescaled with the same factors in both directions.
And sometimes those factors must be different (see bug 1753075).
- So the idea of this patch is to apply a scale matrix to the current transform just before setting lineWidth and stroking. This scale matrix is computed in order to ensure that after transform, a pixel will have its two thickness greater than 1.
All call-sites that use `wrapReason` should be passing a (possibly cloned) `Error` to the helper function, hence we shouldn't need to have a fallback code-path for any other data.
Note that for the `cancel`/`error` methods on Streams, since PR 11115 we've been asserting that the argument is in fact an `Error` as intended.
When calling `wrapReason` from *rejected* Promises, we should also be guaranteed that an `Error` is provided thanks to the ESLint rules `no-throw-literal` and `prefer-promise-reject-errors`.
At this point in time, after recent rounds of clean-up, the `webkit`-prefixed Fullscreen API is the only remaining *browser-specific* compatibility hack in the `web/`-folder JavaScript code.
The standard, and thus unprefixed, Fullscreen API has been supported for *over three years* in both Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. [According to MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fullscreen_API#browser_compatibility), the unprefixed Fullscreen API has been available since:
- Mozilla Firefox 64, released on 2018-12-11; see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Release_Management/Calendar#Past_branch_dates
- Google Chrome 71, released on 2018-12-04; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome_version_history
Hence *only* Safari now requires using a prefixed Fullscreen API, and it's thus (significantly) lagging behind other browsers in this regard.
Considering that the default viewer is written *specifically* to be the UI for the Firefox PDF Viewer, and that we ask users to not just use it as-is[1], I think that we should only support the standard Fullscreen API now.
Furthermore, note also that the FAQ already lists Safari as "Mostly" supported; see https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#faq-support

[1] Note e.g. http://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/getting_started/#introduction
> The viewer is built on the display layer and is the UI for PDF viewer in Firefox and the other browser extensions within the project. It can be a good starting point for building your own viewer. *However, we do ask if you plan to embed the viewer in your own site, that it not just be an unmodified version. Please re-skin it or build upon it.*
Now that the there's ECMAScript support for properly private methods on `class`es, we can use that instead and thus remove all of the `@private` JSDocs comments.
We can (and in my opinion should) use the standard `atob`/`btoa` functions, rather than manually re-implementing this functionality for the font-tests.
This will default to generating test images at the device pixel
ratio of the machine the tests are created on unless the
test explicitly defines and output scale using the
`outputScale` setting. This makes the test look visually
like they would on the machine they are running on. It
also allows us to test different output scales.
Currently we'll happily attempt to send any argument passed to this method over to the worker-thread, without doing any sort of validation.
That could obviously be quite bad, since there's first of all no protection against sending unclonable data. Secondly, it's also possible to pass data that will cause the `Ref.get` call in the worker-thread to fail immediately.
In order to address all of these issues, we'll now properly validate the argument passed to `PDFDocumentProxy.getPageIndex` and when necessary reject already on the main-thread instead.
Trying to use a non-string argument in either a `Cmd` or a `Name` is not intended, and would basically be an implementation error. Hence we can add a non-PRODUCTION check to enforce this, similar to the existing one used e.g. in the `Dict.set` method.
This removes the `ViewerPreferencesValidators` structure, and thus (slightly) simplifies the code overall. With these changes we only have to iterate through, and validate, the actually available Dictionary entries.
Trying to use a non-string `key` in a `Dict` is not intended, and would basically be an implementation error. Hence we can add a non-PRODUCTION check to enforce this, complementing the existing `value` check added in PR 11672.
The call-sites are replaced by direct `typeof`-checks instead, which removes unnecessary function calls. Note that in the `src/`-folder we already had more `typeof`-cases than `isNum`-calls.
These changes were *mostly* done using regular expression search-and-replace, with two exceptions:
- In `Font._charToGlyph` we no longer unconditionally update the `width`, since that seems completely unnecessary.
- In `PDFDocument.documentInfo`, when parsing custom entries, we now do the `typeof`-check once.
Unless you actually need to check that something is both a `Name` and also of the *correct* type, using `instanceof Name` directly should be a tiny bit more efficient since it avoids one function call and an unnecessary `undefined` check.
This patch uses ESLint to enforce this, since we obviously still want to keep the `isName` helper function for where it makes sense.

Given that we expose `PDFObjects`-instances, via the `commonObjs` and `objs` properties, on the `PDFPageProxy`-instances this ought to help provide slightly better TypeScript definitions.
The manually tracked `resolved`-property is no longer necessary, since the same information is now directly available on all `PromiseCapability`-instances.
Furthermore, since the `PDFObjects.resolve` method is not documented as accepting e.g. only Object-data, we probably shouldn't resolve the `PromiseCapability` with the `data` and instead only store it on the `PDFObjects`-instance.[1]

[1] While Objects are passed by reference in JavaScript, other primitives such as e.g. strings are passed by value and the current implementation *could* thus lead to increased memory usage. Given how we're using `PDFObjects` in the PDF.js code-base none of this should be an issue, but it still cannot hurt to change this.
