I received multiple reports about the following cryptic error in the
Chrome extension when the user tried to open a local file:
> PDF.js v1.1.527 (build: 2096a2a)
> Message: Cannot read property 'Symbol(Symbol.iterator)' of null
This error most likely originated from core/stream.js:
function Stream(arrayBuffer, start, length, dict) {
this.bytes = (arrayBuffer instanceof Uint8Array ?
arrayBuffer : new Uint8Array(arrayBuffer));
^^^^^^^^^^^
`arrayBuffer` is `null`, and that in turn is caused by the fact that
for non-existing files, there is no data. I've applied two fixes:
1. Never call onDone with a void buffer, but call the error handler
instead.
2. Show a sensible error message for local files with status = 0.
