After PR 19731 the format of compiled Type3-glyphs is now simple enough that the compilation can be moved to the worker-thread, without introducing any significant additional complexity.
This allows us to, ever so slightly, simplify the implementation in `src/display/canvas.js` since the Type3 operatorLists will now directly include standard path-rendering operators (using the format introduced in PR 19689).
As part of these changes we also stop caching Type3 image masks since: we've not come across any cases where that actually helps, they're usually fairly small, and it simplifies the code.
Note that one "negative" change introduced in this patch is that we'll now compile Type3-glyphs *eagerly*, whereas previously we'd only do that lazily upon their first use.
However, this doesn't seem to impact performance in any noticeable way since the compilation is fast enough (way below 1 ms/glyph in my testing) and Type3-fonts are also limited to just 256 glyphs. Also, many (or most?) Type3-fonts don't even use image masks and are thus not affected by these changes.
This was deprecated in PR 15758 and given that it's quite unlikely that any third-party users are relying on this functionality, since it was only ever added to support telemetry reporting in the Firefox PDF Viewer, it should hopefully be fine to remove this fairly quickly.
These changes reduce the bundle size of the Firefox PDF Viewer by 4.5 kB in total.
These changes were made *mostly* automatically, using `gulp lint --fix`, with the following manual changes:

- `FontFlags`, is used in both `src/core/fonts.js` and `src/core/evaluator.js`.
- `getFontType`, same as the above.
- `MacStandardGlyphOrdering`, is a fairly large data-structure and `src/core/fonts.js` is already a *very* large file.
- `recoverGlyphName`, a dependency of `type1FontGlyphMapping`; please see below.
- `SEAC_ANALYSIS_ENABLED`, is used by both `Type1Font`, `CFFFont`, and unit-tests; please see below.
- `type1FontGlyphMapping`, is used by both `Type1Font` and `CFFFont` which a later patch will move to their own files.
