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.

For cross compiling.

fixes #117 fixes #118 fixes #119 fixes #120 Several other infinite loop bugs were fixed by previous changes. Include their test files in the test suite.
-
During parsing of an object, sometimes parts of the object have to be resolved. An example is stream lengths. If such an object directly or indirectly points to the object being parsed, it can cause an infinite loop. Guard against all cases of re-entrant resolution of objects.
-
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-2017-9209.
-
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.

Don't try to install HTML or PDF documentation if we're not building docs.
-
The 64 Bit file functions are supported by C++-Builder as well and need to be used, else fseek will error out on larger files than 4 GB like used in the large file test.
-
Some compilers output extra newlines in some cases.
-
QPDFObjectHandle was used as forward declaration, but C++-Builder 10 Seattle can't use it in std::list in such cases because the type is undefined.
-
qutil.cc uses strerror to print some exceptions and adds a newline afterwards, but strerror in Windows already adds one newline at the end of the message and the additional one from std::endl breaks the output vs. the expected one.
-
Provide notes about LibTiff and such.
-
Working with absolute paths makes debugging easier, but some called scripts always need / as dir separator or won't work.
-
/dev/null is not portable, so use File::Spec instead, which provides portable "paths" and especially "nul" on Windows. I changed all places with hard coded /dev/null to be sure, while I think it only is a problem in direct system calls, because the other executed commands go to sh.exe from MSYS which itself should port /dev/null to NUL. The test still pass, so shouldn't have made any harm...
-
expr needs ARG + ARG quote paths to support support spaces
-
Shebang doesn't work well on Windows.
-
Remove an extraneous newline to avoid useless constant warning.
-
Also update maintainer documentation on binary compatibility testing.
-
Since we have to bump soname, remove some private methods that were just there for binary compatibility
-
Make sure people know that static ID should be used only for testing.
