There's a fair number of event listeners in the editor-code that we're currently removing "manually", by keeping references to their event handler functions.
This was necessary since we have a "global" `AbortController` that applies to all event listeners used in the editor-code, however it's now possible to combine multiple `AbortSignal`s; please see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AbortSignal/any_static
Since this functionality is [fairly new](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AbortSignal/any_static#browser_compatibility) the viewer will check that `AbortSignal.any()` is available before enabling the editing-functionality.
(It should hopefully be fairly straightforward, famous last words, for users to implement a polyfill to allow editing in older browsers.)
Finally, this patch also adds checks and test-only asserts to ensure that we don't add duplicate event listeners in various editor-code.
Given that we're removing event listeners with `AbortSignal` it's no longer necessary to keep a reference to a few of the event handler functions in order to remove them.
Hence we can simply inline the relevant `bind`-calls instead, which reduces the code-size a tiny bit.
Instead of sending to the main thread an array of Objects for a list of points (or quadpoints),
we'll send just a basic float buffer.
It should slightly improve performances (especially when cloning the data) and use slightly less memory.
The original bug was because the parent was null when trying to show
an highlight annotation which led to an exception.
That led me to think about having some null/non-null parent when removing
an editor: it's a mess especially if a destroyed parent is still attached
to an editor. Consequently, this patch always sets the parent to null when
deleting the editor.
The free highlighting is enabled when the mouse pointer isn't on some text.
Then we draw a shape with smoothed borders corresponding to the movement of
the mouse.
Printing/saving and changing the thickness will come later.
The doorhanger for highlighting has a basic color picker composed of 5 predefined colors
to set the default color to use.
These colors can be changed thanks to a preference for now but it's something which could
be changed in the Firefox settings in the future.
Each highlight has in its own toolbar a color picker to just change its color.
The different color pickers are so similar (modulo few differences in their styles) that
this patch introduces a new class ColorPicker which provides a color picker component
which could be reused in future editors.
All in all, a large part of this patch is dedicated to color picker itself and its style
and the rest is almost a matter of wiring the component.
