It seems to be fairly common for OCR software to include incomplete TrueType fonts, notable missing the "glyf" table, in PDF files. Since we currently reject such fonts, the result is that text-selection/copying is broken.
This patch contains a suggested approach to try and use these kind of broken fonts, by using existing code in `sanitizeGlyphLocations` to replace a missing "glyf" table with dummy data.

The test case was changed in 1faca19021 because the original file was not available anymore. However, its hash was also changed, meaning that we do not test the intended version anymore.
This patch makes sure that we test the intented version by reverting to
the original hash and using a link, also pointing to the Internet
Archive, with the original file.
This test was disabled in PR 4732, because the file was no longer available. The motivation being that there were two other files which should be good replacements. However, one of those has since been replaced with a reduced test-case (which doesn't exercise the same code-path), and in the other one the error does not appear to be entirely identical.
Hence it seems reasonable to re-add the 'aboutstacks.pdf' test, since it was possible to find it on the Internet Archive (by searching using a different URL, compared to the current one).
Note that despite the new file having a different hash than the the current one, it does render *identically* and most importantly it uses *the same* JBIG2 functionality.
For reference, please see issue 3666 and PR 3738.
*This patch follows a similar idea as PR 5756.*
The patch is based on the nice debugging done by Brendan in the referenced issue 6782.
A better way to handle this, and similar issues, would probably be to completely ignore what the PDF file claims about font type/subtype, and just check the actual data. But until that kind of rewrite happens, this patch should help.
Fixes 6782.
Currently we're not applying Patterns for text, but only for graphics.
This patch is unfortunately not a complete solution, but rather a step on the way, since there are still some PDF files where the Patterns look more like a solid colour, rather than the intended gradient.
I've been unable to fix these issues completely, and I've not managed to determine if the remaining issues are caused either by the pattern code, the canvas code, or perhaps both.
However, given that even this simple patch improves the current situation quite a bit, I figured that it couldn't hurt to submit it as-is.
- Fixes 5804.
- Fixes 6130.
- Improves 3988 a lot, since the text is now visible. However, it looks like the text is *one* solid colour, instead of the correct gradient.
- Improves 5432, since the text is no longer gray. (This file also suffers from the same problem as the previous one.)
Most code for Popup annotations is already present for Text annotations.
This patch extracts the popup creation logic from the Text annotation
code so it can be reused for Popup annotations.
Not only does this add support for Popup annotations, the Text
annotation code is also considerably easier. If a `Popup` entry is
available for a Text annotation, it will not be more than an image. The
popup will be handled by the Popup annotation. However, it is also
possible for Text annotations to not have a separate Popup annotation,
in which case the Text annotation handles the popup creation itself.
In `Font_checkAndRepair` we can decide that a font isn't TrueType, and instead parse it as CFF. In that case it's quite possible that the `fontMatrix` will be changed, and without calling `adjustWidths` we're failing to update the glyph widths correctly.

After PR 6590, `font.spaceWidth` is now called in more cases than before (in `PartialEvaluator_getTextContent`), which exposed an underlying issue with `IdentityToUnicodeMap_charCodeOf` throwing an error.
This breaks text-selection in some PDF files found in the wild, hence this patch replaces the `error` with an actual function instead (modelled after `IdentityCMap_charCodeOf`).
