Wrap an object in an array if it is not already an array.

If parsing content streams is treated as a warning, there is no way
for a caller to know if a parsing operation has failed. This is very
dangerous and will likely result in data loss when token filters are
parser callbacks are in use.

It's not really a shallow copy. It just doesn't cross indirect object
boundaries. The old implementation had a bug that would cause multiple
shallow copies of the same object to share memory, which was not the
intention.

Provide a convenient way of accessing rectangles.

This fixes CVE-2018-9918.

Remove calls to assertPageObject(). All cases in the library that
called assertPageObject() work fine if you don't call
assertPageObject() because nothing assumes anything that was being
checked by that call. Removing the calls enables more files to be
successfully processed.

Give objects descriptions and context so it is possible to issue
warnings instead of fatal errors for attempts to access objects of the
wrong type.

As in other cases, this is to enable adding new member variables in
the future without breaking ABI compatibility.

Expose Pl_QPDFTokenizer, and have it do more of the work of managing
the token filter's pipeline.

Implement a TokenFilter class and refactor Pl_QPDFTokenizer to use a
TokenFilter class called ContentNormalizer. Pl_QPDFTokenizer is now a
general filter that passes data through a TokenFilter.

Remove a redundant method that was equal to another one with
additional arguments. This breaks binary compatibility, but there are
other ABI breaking changes in the upcoming release, so now is the time
to do it.

Tweak the message so that we inform the user that we are mitigating
data loss.

This commit adds several API methods that enable control over which
types of filters QPDF will attempt to decode. It also adds support for
/RunLengthDecode and /DCTDecode filters for both encoding and
decoding.

When parsing content streams, allow content to be split arbitrarily
across stream boundaries.

When requested, QPDFWriter will do more aggress prechecking of streams
to make sure it can actually succeed in decoding them before
attempting to do so. This will allow preservation of raw data even
when the raw data is corrupted relative to the specified filters.

QPDFObjectHandle::parseInternal now issues warnings instead of
throwing exceptions for all error conditions that it finds (except
internal logic errors) and has stronger recovery for things like
invalid tokens and malformed dictionaries. This should improve qpdf's
ability to recover from a wide range of broken files that currently
cause it to fail.

This is CVE-2017-9208.

The QPDF library uses object ID 0 internally as a sentinel to
represent a direct object, but prior to this fix, was not blocking
handling of 0 0 obj or 0 0 R as a special case. Creating an object in
the file with 0 0 obj could cause various infinite loops. The PDF spec
doesn't allow for object 0. Having qpdf handle object 0 might be a
better fix, but changing all the places in the code that assumes objid
== 0 means direct would be risky.

This is CVE-2017-9210.

The description string for an error message included unparsing an
object, which is too complex of a thing to try to do while throwing an
exception. There was only one example of this in the entire codebase,
so it is not a pervasive problem. Fixing this eliminated one class of
infinite loop errors.

When checking two objects preceding R while parsing, ensure that the
objects are direct. This avoids stuff like 1 0 obj containing 1 0 R 0 R
from causing an infinite loop in object resolution.

The spec allows /Contents to be omitted for pages that are blank, but
QPDFObjectHandle::getPageContents() was throwing an exception in this
case.

For std::string and std::vector, replace operator[] with at.  This was
done using an automated process.  See README.hardening for details.

Thanks to Jiri Popelka from Red Hat for sending the output of a
Coverity run over qpdf.

This is safer than getObjectID() and getGeneration() for many uses.

Remove const qualifier from getTypeCode and get getTypeName methods of
QPDFObjectHandle, make them work properly for indirect objects, and
exercise them much better in the test suite.
