- Improve chunking in order to fix some bugs where the spaces aren't here:
* track the last position where a glyph has been drawn;
* when a new glyph (first glyph in a chunk) is added then compare its position with the last saved one and add a space or break:
- there are multiple ways to move the glyphs and to avoid to have to deal with all the different possibilities it's a way easier to just compare positions;
- and so there is now one function (i.e. "compareWithLastPosition") where all the job is done.
- Add some breaks in order to get lines;
- Remove the multiple whites spaces:
* some spaces were filled with several whites spaces and so it makes harder to find some sequences of words using the search tool;
* other pdf readers replace spaces by one white space.

Given that both the textLayer rendering *and* the structTree parsing is asynchronous, it's possible that we'll attempt to insert the structTree in a removed page. While there's thankfully no outright breakage caused by this, it will nonetheless lead to errors being printed in the console and we should obviously avoid this.
To reproduce this bug (without the patch), open http://localhost:8888/web/viewer.html?file=/test/pdfs/pdf.pdf#disableStream=true&disableAutoFetch=true and scroll *very quickly* through the document and notice the following error being (intermittently) printed in the console:
```
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: can't access property "appendChild", this.canvas is undefined
```
Given that we're using modules, meaning that only explicitly `export`ed things are visible to the outside, it's no longer necessary to wrap all of the code in a closure.
This gets rid of *a lot* of boilerplate that stems from our old way of simulating classes, and it actually reduces the filesize noticeably.
For e.g. `gulp mozcentral`, the *built* `pdf.js` files decreases from `318 404` to `314 722` bytes (~1 percent) with this patch.
This is done automatically with `gulp lint --fix` and the following
manual changes:

Since we really don't want to let a particular Webpack-mode dictate how we can/can't write code, let's add a note in the webpack-example README about minification instead.
Using `for...of` is a modern and generally much nicer pattern, since it gets rid of unnecessary callback-functions. (In a couple of spots, a "regular" `for` loop had to be used.)
- In case of large string the sandbox initialization failed because of an OOM
* so allocate a new string in the heap
* and free it after use.
- it requires a quickjs update since we need to export some symbols (stringToNewUTF8 and free).
This patch first of all moves all checking/validation into the `appendIfJavaScriptDict` function, to avoid duplicating it in multiple places. Secondly, also removes what's now an outdated/incorrect comment since we have implemented scripting support.
Given that we're (almost) always iterating through the result of the `getAll`-calls, using a `Map` seems nicer overall since it's more suited to iteration compared to a regular Object.
Also, add a couple of `Dict`-checks in existing code touched by this patch, since it really cannot hurt to prevent *potential* errors in a corrupt PDF document.
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).
For CFF fonts without proper `ToUnicode`/`Encoding` data, utilize the "charset"/"Encoding"-data from the font file to improve text-selection (issue 13260)
Keeps screen readers from pausing on every span so
paragraphs are read more naturally. Note: this only seems
to affect Firefox, Chrome automatically combines the spans.
By replacing `XMLHttpRequest` with a `fetch` call, the helper function can be modernized to use async/await instead.
Note that the headers doesn't seem necessary to set now, since:
- The Fetch API provides a method for accessing the response as *text*, which renders the "Content-type" header unnecessary.
- According to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Forbidden_header_name, the "Content-length" header isn't necessary.
By not waiting for the /Properties to load, before parsing of the operatorList/textContent starts, there's a very real risk that a `MissingDataException` will be thrown when trying to access the data in the `PartialEvaluator.parseMarkedContentProps` method.
If this ever happens it will thus lead to incomplete and/or outright broken rendering, and with e.g. `disableAutoFetch=true` set the likelihood of this occuring would increase quite a bit.
*Please note:* While I've not yet seen this error in an actual PDF document, it can happen during loading if you're unlucky enough with e.g. the structure of the PDF document and/or the download speed offered by the server.
