XFA: a script's time starts when its context is ready, and a value reaches every field bound to its data node (#1589)
Two follow-ups the maintainer asked for after #1355. The script session's worker now says when the engine is ready for the script it was sent (its JavaScript context built; FormCalc at once), and the script's time limit runs from then, with the engine's own start limit before it, as the one-shot path always did: building a context is not charged to the script, which matters on a busy machine. A field inside an area shares its data node with a field of the same name outside it (areas are left out of data paths). The in-place refresh of the live form now follows the data path through the tree and gives every field bound to the node the value the tree builder would, each by its own template field (an exclusion group there means a rebuild), and the engine's value setter, with an index of widgets by data node, gives every widget bound to the node the value by its own kind, hidden fields included, writing the data whenever the node's text differs. The script's time now also starts after its host and globals are set up. A stale parity note (choosing a picture for an image field, delivered in #1175) is removed.

All the scripts of one event run on one thread, each in a fresh context on the form as the engine holds it then (nothing shared between scripts; the live form kept up to date in place for values, rebuilt only when the structure changed), so hundreds of calculations run within the open budget. Hostile scripts are bounded per event (merged and capped effects, messages and console lines, lower loop limits and a time budget on open and calculate, one datasets rewrite per event, print/save/links/focus from clicks only, a runaway script abandoned and the form's scripts turned off, which the app says in a toast and on the notice bar, with a button to the JavaScript console, and doc_info reports as xfa_scripts_off) and what open-time scripts changed is noted. Missing: loops inside nested calls are only stopped by abandoning their thread, and script memory is not capped; the change event per keystroke; xfa.template, connections and data descriptions; a hidden instance of a repeating subform hides them all; choosing a new picture for an image field; barcodes are drawn as their text, not bars; keep rules; metrics are approximate and Acrobat fidelity is eyeballed on real forms, not measured (#60)"
