This also fixes a bug when `getContentsAsync()` is passed an
`nsIInputStream` or `nsIChannel` where raw bytes were returned instead
of a string. Not sure if we're doing that anywhere. If we are, this
would presumably break that code, but the function is supposed to return
a decoded string.
This test covers couple of scenarios downloading a 16MB file from a
local http server (simple and concurrently) using Zotero.File.download.
When running current implementation, this seems to fail persistently.
In real-world usage, current implementation seems to work
intermittently, failing more often for larger files.
This intermittent behaviour is most likely cause of #2216.
Filesystems care about byte length, not character length, so treat
maxLength as the byte length limit and truncate accordingly.
This will also now remove entire emoji characters without corrupting
them.
Zotero.File.move() now forces `overwrite` if the old and new filenames
differ only by case, since otherwise on a case-insensitive filesystem
OS.File.move() does an existence check and thinks that the target file
exists.
This is the recommended approach (since NetUtil can still do some main-thread
I/O for files) and avoids warnings in the console.
For getContentsAsync(), also sends nsIURIs and string URIs to
Zotero.HTTP.request(), which should be used instead.
This makes getBinaryContentsAsync() much slower (due to the conversion from an
array of bytes to a binary string), but it's only used in tests. For one test
that compares two large files, use MD5 instead.
Restore prepopulated charset table, but this time with just the
encodings from the WHATWG Encoding Standard. Assigning a charset to
Zotero.Item::attachmentCharset runs the value through
Zotero.CharacterSets.toCanonical() automatically.
This migrates attachment charsets to the new canonical values, clearing any
that are unsupported.
Other legacy mappings could still be added back, as disussed in #760.
