Trying to update Stylelint to version `15.10.1`, and beyond, broke linting. Looking at the changes the issue appears to be that the `bin/stylelint.js` file was replaced with `bin/stylelint.mjs` instead, which our `gulp lint` runner wasn't able to automatically find; see https://github.com/stylelint/stylelint/compare/15.10.0...15.10.1
When the flag is set, the appearance has to be generated from the value so it's
useless/meaningless to extract the content from the existing appearance.
When a pdf has /NeedAppearances set to true, the annotation appearance must be
generated from its value and we must take into account the hasOwnCanvas property.
*Please note:* I'm not aware of any bugs caused by this, however that might be more luck than anything else.
In PR 16392 the `incrementalUpdate` function, and all of its various helpers, were made asynchronous. However the call-site in `src/core/worker.js` wasn't updated, which means that we currently reset temporary XRef-entries while saving is ongoing.
By leveraging import maps we can get rid of *most* of the remaining `require`-calls in the `src/display/`-folder, since we should strive to use modern `import`-statements wherever possible.
The only remaining cases are Node.js-specific dependencies, since those seem very difficult to convert unless we start producing a bundle *specifically* for Node.js environments.
With the changes in the previous patch the `isNodeJS`-helper no longer needs to live in its own file, which helps get rid of a closure in the *built* files.
In the last couple of years we've been quicker to remove support for older browsers/environments, which means that at this point in time we don't bundle that many polyfills. (The polyfills are also generally simpler nowadays, ever since we removed support for e.g. Internet Explorer.)
Rather than having to *manually* handle the polyfills, we can actually let Babel take care of bundling the necessary polyfills for us; please refer to https://babeljs.io/docs/babel-preset-env
The only exception here is the Node.js-specific compatibility-code, which is moved into the `src/display/node_utils.js` file. This ought to be fine since workers are not available/used in Node.js-environments.
*Please note:* For the `legacy`-builds this will increase the size of the *built* files, however that seems like a very small price to pay in order to simplify maintenance of the general PDF.js library.
Localization of this button broke in PR 16340, which I assume was completely accidental, since the download-button now tries to access a l10n-id that was removed some time ago (see PR 15617).
Note how loading even the development viewer, i.e. http://localhost:8888/web/viewer-geckoview.html#locale=en-US, currently logs l10n-warnings on the `master` branch.
Having a `require` in this file has never made sense in e.g. the Firefox PDF Viewer and shouldn't really be necessary.
Possibly the idea was to facilitate some kind of third-party bundling, however the *built* `pdf.js` file has always exposed the API-contents globally.
Currently this class contains a few "special" code-paths for the COMPONENTS build-target, which normally wouldn't be a problem. However, in this particular case that means accessing code that we don't want to include unconditionally in all builds.
This is currently implemented using build-time `require`-calls which we nowadays want to avoid, and we should strive to remove all such cases from the code-base. (Generally speaking `import` is the future, and build-tools may not always play well with a mix of both formats.)
We can easily improve things here by using sub-classing for the COMPONENTS build-target, and then use the ability to re-name when exporting (to avoid breaking existing code).
