If the current viewer is a `PDFSinglePageViewer` instance the Scroll/Spread modes are no-ops, hence displaying buttons that do *nothing* when clicked will probably do very little besides confuse users.
Rather than having to manually call a method on `PDFFindController` instances from `BaseViewer.setDocument`, thus essentially having to resolve the private `_firstPagePromise` from the "outside", this can be done easily with the 'pagesinit' event dispatched on the `eventBus` instead.
Please note this particular `PDFFindController` code pre-dates the `eventBus` by almost three years, which should explain why the code looks the way it does.
Since other viewer state, such as the current page/scale/rotation[1], are not available as `BaseViewer` constructor options, this makes the Scroll/Spread modes stand out quite a bit. Hence it probably makes sense to remove/deprecate this, to avoid inconsistent and possibly confusing state in this code.

[1] These properties are *purposely* not available in the constructor, since attempting to set them before a document is loaded has number of issues; please refer to https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/8539#issuecomment-309706629 for additional details.
Since all the other viewer methods use the getter/setter pattern, e.g. for setting page/scale/rotation, the way that the Scroll/Spread modes are set thus stands out. For consistency, this really ought to use the same pattern as the rest of the `BaseViewer`. (To avoid breaking third-party implementations, the old methods are kept around as aliases.)
Note how in `BaseViewer.forceRendering` the Scroll mode is used to determine how pre-rendering will work. Currently this is broken in Presentation Mode, if horizontal scrolling was enabled prior to entering fullscreen.
Furthermore, there's a few additional cases where the `this.scrollMode === ScrollMode.HORIZONTAL` check is pointless either in Presentation Mode or when a `PDFSinglePageViewer` instance is used.
Since the Scroll/Spread modes doesn't make (any) sense in `PDFSinglePageViewer` instances, the general structure of these methods can be improved to reflect that.
Given that this method is a no-op in `PDFSinglePageViewer`, similar to `_regroupSpreads`, let's improve the general code structure by simply moving the method.
The Secondary Toolbar buttons for, not to mention the actual toggling of, Scroll/Spread modes are currently completely broken in older browsers (such as IE11).
As a follow-up, it'd probably be a good idea to try and find a *feature complete* `classList` polyfill that could be used instead, but this patch at least addresses the immediate regression.

This builds on the scrolling mode work to add three buttons for joining
page spreads together: one for the default view, with no page spreads,
and two for spreads starting on odd-numbered or even-numbered pages.
A couple of basic unit-tests are added, and a manual `isLandscape` check (in `web/base_viewer.js`) is also converted to use the helper function instead.
One additional complication with removing this option from the global `PDFJS` object, is that the viewer currently needs to check `disableAutoFetch` in a couple of places. To address this I'm thus proposing adding a getter in `PDFDocumentProxy`, to allow checking the *actually* used values for a particular `getDocument` invocation.
Rather than having two different (but connected) options for the textLayer, I think that it makes sense to try and unify this. For example: currently if `disableTextLayer === true`, then the value of `enhanceTextSelection` is simply ignored.
Since PDF.js version `2.0` already won't be backwards compatible in lots of ways, I don't think that we need to worry about migrating existing preferences here.
This removes the `PDFJS.imageResourcesPath` dependency from the viewer components and the test-suite, but please note that as a *temporary* solution the default viewer still uses it.
This removes the `PDFJS.maxCanvasPixels` dependency from the viewer components, but please note that as a *temporary* solution the default viewer still uses it.
This removes the `PDFJS.useOnlyCssZoom` dependency from the viewer components, but please note that as a *temporary* solution the default viewer still uses it.
The only reason for adding this parameter in the first place, all the way back in PR 4074, was that the "maintain document position on zooming" feature was landed and backed out a couple of times before it finally stuck.
Hence it seemed, at the time, like a good idea to have a simple way to disable that behaviour. However, that was almost four years ago, and it's just not likely that we'd want/need to ever disable it now.
Furthermore I really cannot imagine why anyone would actually *want* to reset the position whenever zooming occurs, since it results in a quite annoying UX.
*So, to summarize:* Based on the above, I think that we should try to remove this parameter now. On the off chance that anyone complains, re-adding it shouldn't be difficult.
This patch introduces an abstract `BaseViewer` class, that the existing `PDFViewer` then extends. *Please note:* This lays the necessary foundation for the next patch.
