There are environments that include *incomplete* polyfills for the `navigator`-object, which may thus cause the PDF.js library to break.
Despite that clearly not being our fault, it may still result in bug reports filed against the PDF.js project; see e.g. 15728.
Currently this even seem to affect *the latest* version of Node.js; see e.g. [here].
*Please note:* Thanks to the pre-processor none of these changes affect the Firefox PDF Viewer, however it does add "overhead" when working with and reviewing the affected code (which is why I'm not crazy about this).
*Please note:* While following the steps in the README still works with this patch, in the sense that the example runs and successfully renders a PDF document, I unfortunately cannot tell if it illustrates Webpack best practices.
- Remove the `errorWrapper`-element, since it simplifies the example and is consistent with the default viewer; see PR 15533.
- Simplify the l10n-handling, since the `NullL10n` should be able to translate everything e.g. without fallback values; see PR 17146.
Note that we must append the textLayer to the DOM *before* enabling the `highlighter` and `accessibilityManager`, to avoid breaking e.g. a pending searching operation.
The least invasive solution, that I was able to come up with, is to introduce a new `TextLayerBuilder` callback-function for this purpose.
Currently the `WidgetAnnotationElement._getKeyModifier` method will always be falsy on Linux, which seems like a simple oversight. Looking at all the other `FeatureTest.platform` accesses we only handle the `isMac`-case specially, and it seems reasonable to do the same thing here.
The reason that this hasn't led to any bug reports is most likely that the `modifier`-property seems completely unused in the scripting-implementation.
Finally, with these changes we can (slightly) simplify the `FeatureTest.platform` implementation.
After PR 17177 the interface of `XfaLayerBuilder` is now inconsistent, since whether or not we directly append the xfaLayer to the DOM now depends on the rendering intent.
I forgot to include `web/l10n_utils.js` in PR 17161, which currently breaks `ConstL10n` since there's no longer a method called `setL10n`; sorry about that!
Most of the strings shouldn't contain special chars (<= 0x1F) so we can
have a fast path which just checks if the string contains at least one such
a char.
To prevent the *standalone* viewer-components from breaking, we need to ensure that the `NullL10n`-interface won't accidentally diverge from the actual `L10n`-implementations.
Looking at the `PDFThumbnailView.setPageLabel` method you'll see that we update e.g. the "aria-label" of the thumbnail-image for documents that contain (valid) pageLabels.
This isn't done in `PDFPageView`, which seems inconsistent, hence this patch.
This patch changes almost all viewer-components[1] to use "data-l10n-id"/"data-l10n-args" for localization, which means that in many cases we no longer need to pass around the `L10n`-instance any more.
One part of the code-base where the `L10n`-instance is still being used "directly" is the AnnotationEditors, however while it might be possible to convert (most of) that code as well that's not attempted in this patch.

[1] The one exception is the `PDFDocumentProperties` dialog, since the way it's currently implemented makes that less straightforward to fix without a lot of code changes.
*Please note:* In the Firefox PDF Viewer this findbar is only used for PDF documents placed in e.g. `<iframe>` elements.
By registering a `ResizeObserver` when the `PDFFindBar` is open we slightly unify and simplify how the findbar layout (row vs column) is handled.
This will be especially helpful with upcoming changes, where we'll make use of "data-l10n-id"/"data-l10n-args" to trigger translation in the viewer.
