* M12: run XFA forms' JavaScript: calculations, validation, rows, visibility (#60) Laid-out XFA forms had their fields but none of their behaviour: totals didn't compute, "Add row" buttons did nothing, and subforms a check box should reveal stayed hidden. The js crate gains the XFA scripting object model as native boa objects over a snapshot of the form tree: xfa.form navigation by name, SOM resolution (absolute, relative with the containing-subform search, descendants, indexes and wildcards), rawValue/presence/access, instance managers (_name, addInstance, removeInstance, setInstances, count), xfa.host (messageBox, resetData, print, setFocus, gotoURL), xfa.layout page numbers, xfa.event, app, console and util, plus unqualified sibling names as XFA resolves them. Scripts run with `this` bound to the node and yield their completion value; everything they change or ask for comes back as effects. The xfa crate builds the live form tree (instances from the data, values, presence and access with overrides) and the event table from the template, keeps presence and access overrides on the AcroForm (/PCXfaOverrides) so undo and reopening preserve them, adds and removes row instances in the datasets packet through the existing merge pipeline, and lays the form out again on demand. The engine runs initialize and calculate scripts on open (an appended revision, nothing dirty), exit, validate and calculate after a field changes (a failing validate shows its message and keeps the value, as Acrobat does), and click scripts for buttons through run_javascript, so the app's buttons and the js_run tool work unchanged. Values a script sets go to the fields and the data at once; rows and visibility changes re-lay the form out. All of it is one undo step. JavaScript off turns it off. FormCalc scripts are recognised and reported, not run. Bounds: script length and nesting as before, loop and recursion limits, at most 1000 instances added per run, 2000 scripts and 50 re-layouts per event; a calculate script that adds rows, or a click script looping on addInstance/setInstances, ends quickly with a bounded form (tested). Checked on IRCC's IMM 5669: opens with its page-number scripts, the Print button's xfa.host.print runs through js_run, fill and save keep the original bytes. * M12: Save and SaveAs named actions run the file commands (#60) XFA forms' Save buttons are app.execMenuItem("SaveAs"), which the layout turns into a SaveAs named action; the shell answered it with "the SaveAs action isn't supported yet". Named Save and SaveAs now run file.save and file.save_as, like Named Print opens the print dialog. The buttons test covers Save against a file on disk (SaveAs opens the native dialog, which a headless test must not). * M12: bound XFA form scripts against hostile forms (#60) Review fixes for the XFA scripting PR (#230): - Effects: values, presence and access set again on the same object merge (last wins, behind order-dependent effects); 10k effects, 100 message boxes and 1000 console lines per script and per event, reported when hit. An event's data writes are kept in memory and written as one rewrite of the datasets packet; later writes in the same edit replace that stream in place. - form_tree stops at 200k objects and says so; forms without scripts build no live form and run nothing. - Only click scripts may print, save, open links or move the focus; others are noted in the console. Open-time messages and errors show right after open. - Lower loop limits for initialize/calculate/validate, a time budget per event after which remaining scripts are skipped and reported, and a per-script time limit after which a runaway script is abandoned and the document's scripts turned off. - What open-time scripts change is noted in the XFA warnings. - A document's Named /Save no longer writes the file on click (SaveAs opens the Save As dialog, as a script's execMenuItem does). - XFA click scripts are no longer written as /S /JavaScript actions: the button carries /PCXfaClick and runs by SOM path.
