Fallback to the built-in JPEG decoder when browser decoding fails, and attempt to handle JPEG images with DNL (Define Number of Lines) markers (issue 8614)
Please refer to the specification, found at https://www.w3.org/Graphics/JPEG/itu-t81.pdf#page=49
Given how the JPEG decoder is currently implemented, we need to know the value of the scanLines parameter (among others) *before* parsing of the SOS (Start of Scan) data begins.
Hence the best solution I could come up with here, is to re-parse the image in the *hopefully* rare case of JPEG images that include a DNL (Define Number of Lines) marker.
Fixes 8614.
In the JPEG images in the referenced PDF file, the DHT (Define Huffman Tables) segments contain more data than expected based on the length parameter.
Fixes 9425.
Please refer to the PDF specification, in particular http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#G7.3801570
> A colour space shall be specified in one of two ways:
> - Within a content stream, the CS or cs operator establishes the current colour space parameter in the graphics state. The operand shall always be name object, which either identifies one of the colour spaces that need no additional parameters (DeviceGray, DeviceRGB, DeviceCMYK, or some cases of Pattern) or shall be used as a key in the ColorSpace subdictionary of the current resource dictionary (see 7.8.3, "Resource Dictionaries"). In the latter case, the value of the dictionary entry in turn shall be a colour space array or name. A colour space array shall never be inline within a content stream.
>
> - Outside a content stream, certain objects, such as image XObjects, shall specify a colour space as an explicit parameter, often associated with the key ColorSpace. In this case, the colour space array or name shall always be defined directly as a PDF object, not by an entry in the ColorSpace resource subdictionary. This convention also applies when colour spaces are defined in terms of other colour spaces.
I've been looking into the remaining point in 8637 about blurry images, to see if we could perhaps improve the rendering quality slightly there. After quite a bit of debugging, it seems that the issue is limited to certain progressive JPEG images.
As mentioned previously, I've got no detailed knowledge of the JPEG format, but this patch does seem to improve things quite a bit for the images in question.
Squinting at https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/6c33dde6ca02b389c52e8db3d22494df8b916f33/media/libjpeg/jdphuff.c#492-639, it seems reasonable that we should take the sign of the data into account. Furthermore, looking at the specification in https://www.w3.org/Graphics/JPEG/itu-t81.pdf#page=118, the "F.2.4.3 Decoding the binary decision sequence for non-zero DC differences and AC coefficients" section even contains a description of this (even though I cannot claim to really understand the details).
This was an oversight in PR 9095, which unfortunately breaks rendering in some PDF files (e.g. the one from issue 6737).
It thus appears that we don't have any test-coverage for this code-path, and given the relative complexity of the PDF files affected by this bug I wasn't able to easily create a reduced test-case.
*Please note:* The linked test-case included in this patch is currently *not* rendered correctly (that'd be the PR 6606), but it at least gives us some test-coverage here.
The PDF file in the issue uses a number of *embedded* versions of Lucida fonts, but for some reason does *not* embed the LucidaSans-Demi font. According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucida#Usages that one should be bold, so we can at least improve rendering here (even though it won't look perfect).
Fixes 9291.
This patch refactors the searching for 'endobj', to try and find the next occurance of "obj" and then check if it was in fact an 'endobj' and continue searching otherwise.
This approach is used to avoid having to first find 'endobj', and then re-check the entire contents of the object and having to run (potentially expensive) regular expressions on arbitrary long strings.
Fixes 9105.
There's a number of issues with the fonts in the referenced PDF file. First of all, they contain broken `ToUnicode` data (`NUL` bytes all over the place). However even if you skip those, the `ToUnicode` data appears to contain nothing but a `IdentityH` CMap which won't help provide a proper glyph mapping.
The real issue actually turns out to be that the PDF file uses the "Calibri" font[1], but doesn't include any font files. Since that one isn't a standard font, and uses a fairly different CID to GID map compared to the standard fonts, we're not able to render the file even remotely correct.
To work around this, I'm thus proposing that we include a (incomplete) glyph map for Calibri, and fallback to the standard Helvetica font. Obviously this isn't going to look perfect, but it's really the best that we can hope to achieve given that the PDF file is missing the necessary font data.
Finally, please note that none of the PDF readers I've tried (Adobe Reader, PDFium in Chrome) were able to extract the text (which isn't very surprising, given the broken `ToUnicode` data).
Fixes 9195.

[1] According to Wikipedia, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibri, Calibri is (primarily) a Windows font.
In some fonts, the included `ToUnicode` data is incomplete causing text-selection to not work properly. For simple fonts that contain encoding data, we can manually build a `ToUnicode` map to attempt to improve things.
Please note that since we're currently using the `ToUnicode` data during glyph mapping, in an attempt to avoid rendering regressions, I purposely didn't want to amend to original `ToUnicode` data for this text-selection edge-case.
Instead, I opted for the current solution, which will (hopefully) give slightly better text-extraction results in PDF file with incomplete `ToUnicode` data.
According to the PDF specification, see [section 9.10.2](http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#G8.1873172):
> A conforming reader can use these methods, in the priority given, to map a character code to a Unicode value.
> ...
Reading that paragraph literally, it doesn't seem too unreasonable to use *different* methods for different charcodes.
Fixes 8229.
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.
Moreover, adjust one linked test case that did not conform to the
standard Web Archive URL format and adjust one linked test case because
the link was dead.
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.
Bug 1392647 has a PDF where the default width of the font
is 0. It draws some charcodes that don't have glyphs, but
we were wrongly using the 1000 default width for these
charcodes causing some text to be overlapping.
(for issue #6289)
This does the same for 16 bit as the existing 8 bit tiff predictor code, an addition of the last word to this word.
The last two "& 0xFF" may or may not be needed, I see this isn't done in the 8 bit code, but I'm not a JS developer.
Rather than displaying links that does *nothing* when clicked, it probably makes more sense to simply not render them instead. Especially since it turns out that, at least at this point in time, this is *very* easy to both implement and test.
Fixes 3897.
Since this patch will now treat (some) `NUL` bytes as "ASCII", the number of `followingBytes` checked are thus increased to (hopefully) reduce the risk of introducing new false positives.
Fixes 8823.
