For (1, 0) cmaps, we have two different codepaths depending on whether the font has/hasn't got an encoding. But with (3, 1) cmaps we don't have a good fallback when the encoding is missing, hence this patch changes `readCmapTable` to only choose a (3, 1) cmap table if the font is non-symbolic *and* an encoding exists. Without this, we'll not be able to successfully create a working glyph map for some TrueType fonts with (3, 1) cmap tables.
Fixes 6410.

The problematic font has a `format 2` cmap, which we've never supported properly. Prior to PR 2606, we were able to fallback to a working state, despite not having proper support for that cmap format.
Obviously the best/correct solution would be to implement actual support for more cmap formats[1]. However, I'm hoping that a simple patch will be OK for now, given that:
- `format 2` cmaps seem to be quite rare in practice, since this has been broken for 2.5 years before anyone noticed.
- Having a simple patch will make potential uplifts a lot easier.

Fixes 6068.
The most notable issue with the font in question is that the `differences` array contains lots of strange entries (of the type `uniXXXX`, instead of proper glyph names).
Fixes https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1050040.
With this patch the file is completely readable, but given that the font is broken enough to be rejected by OTS the rendering differs slightly from Adobe Reader.
*Note:* the PDF file is sufficiently broken that even Adobe Reader complains about the font, *and* also about another more general issue.
Currently if a font contains a `toUnicode` entry, we always create a new `ToUnicodeMap` in evaluator.js. This is done even for `IdentityV/IdentityH`, despite to possibility to use the much more compact `IdentityToUnicodeMap` representation.
This patch refactors the `IdentityH/IdentityV` cases, to:
- Avoid calling `IdentityCMap.getMap`, since this prevents allocating and iterating through an array with 65536 elements.
- Ensure that the handling of `toUnicode` is actually correct in fonts.js.
We rely on `toUnicode instanceof IdentityToUnicodeMap` in a few places, and currently this does not work correctly for `IdentityH/IdentityV`.
This is a very small follow-up to PR 5536, which sets `isStandardFont` to `false` instead of `undefined` (as currently happens for some font names).
Since the patch is so small, I hope it's OK to also fix an unrelated copy-and-paste error in a comment that was added in PR 5260.
According to practical experiments, falling back to "Helvetica" when we encounter a non-embedded "[Century Gothic](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Century_Gothic)" `CIDFontType2` font seems to work well.
(Also, the section on Wikipedia about "Printer ink usage" *might* provide some anecdotal evidence that Century Gothic is a fairly standard sans-serif font.)
Obviously this patch doesn't make "Century Gothic" fonts render perfectly, as is often the case with non-embedded fonts, but all the text is now legible in the referenced issues.

Fixes https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=879561.
This is a tentative patch that adds *very* basic support for non-embedded Wingdings fonts (a Windows version of Dingbats), by falling back to the ZapfDingbats encoding. Obviously this approach will not work perfectly, but in my opinion it seems to work reasonably well in pratice.
Instead of this very simple patch, another option would be to try and include more complete glyph data for Wingdings, e.g. a Unicode map and glyph widths, similar to what was done for ZapfDingbats.
However there is, in my opinion, one important difference between Wingdings and ZapfDingbats: ZapfDingbats is part of the 14 standard fonts, which in previous versions of the PDF specification was assumed to be available in PDF readers. To improve compatibility with older files, it thus makes sense for us to include data for ZapfDingbats.
However Wingdings has never been a standard font in PDF files, hence PDF files using it *should* thus contain all the necessary font data.
Given the above, I thus believe that it should be OK to fall back to ZapfDingbats for now. If non-embedded Wingdings fonts turns out to be *a lot* more common, then we can revisit this later.
