This PR changes the way we store bounding boxes so that they use less
memory and can be more easily shared across threads in the future.
Instead of storing the bounding box and list of dependencies for each
operation that renders _something_, we now only store the bounding box
of _every_ operation and no dependencies list. The bounding box of
each operation covers the bounding box of all the operations affected
by it that render something. For example, the bounding box of a
`setFont` operation will be the bounding box of all the `showText`
operations that use that font.
This affects the debugging experience in pdfBug, since now the bounding
box of an operation may be larger than what it renders itself. To help
with this, now when hovering on an operation we also highlight (in red)
all its dependents. We highlight with white stripes operations that do
not affect any part of the page (i.e. with an empty bbox).
To save memory, we now save bounding box x/y coordinates as uint8
rather than float64. This effectively gives us a 256x256 uniform grid
that covers the page, which is high enough resolution for the usecase.
This function is required for the commenting feature: the user will be able to click
on a comment in the sidebar and the document will be scrolled accordingly.
This commit is a first step towards #6419, and it can also help with
first compute which ops can affect what is visible in that part of
the page.
This commit adds logic to track operations with their respective
bounding boxes. Only operations that actually cause something to
be rendered have a bounding box and dependencies.
Consider the following example:
```
0. setFillRGBColor
1. beginText
2. showText "Hello"
3. endText
4. constructPath [...] -> eoFill
```
here we have three rendering operations: the showText op (2) and the
path (4). (2) depends on (0), (1) and (3), while (4) only depends on
(0). Both (2) and (4) have a bounding box.
This tracking happens when first rendering a PDF: we then use the
recorded information to optimize future partial renderings of a PDF, so
that we can skip operations that do not affected the PDF area on the
canvas.
All this logic only runs when the new `enableOptimizedPartialRendering`
preference, disabled by default, is enabled.
The bounding boxes and dependencies are also shown in the pdfBug
stepper. When hovering over a step now:
- it highlights the steps that they depend on
- it highlights on the PDF itself the bounding box
The fixed -400px horizontal offset used by
scrollIntoView led to horizontal scroll only moving
part-way right on narrow screens. The highlights near
the right-edge remained party or completely off
screen.
This centres the highlighted match on any viewport width while
clamping the left margin to 20-400px. On very narrow screens
the scrollbar now moves all the way to the right instead of
stopping midway.
This is a precursor to moving the call into a
worker thread to let us use `OffscreenCanvas`. The
current position wouldn't work since we make
transformations to the canvas object after the
getContext call, which isn't allowed for
OffscreenCanvas. Also it isn't allowed to clone or
`transferControlToOffscreen` the canvas after the
`getContext` call.
