2018-02-02Signature support: decouple mupdf from the pkcs7 implementationPaul Gardiner
The mupdf build included an implimentation of the pkcs7 functions that are needed for signing documents and verifying signatures, the implementation being either an openssl-based one, or a stub that returned errors. This commit removes the pkcs7 functions from the main mupdf library. For the sake of verification, there wasn't really a need for the pkcs7 functions to be part of mupdf. It was only the checking function that used them. The checking function is now provided as a helper, outside of the main build. The openssl-based pkcs7 functions area also supplied as a helper. Users wishing to verify signatures can either use the checking function directly, or use the source on which to base their own. Document signing requires more integration between mupdf and pkcs7 because part of the process is performed at time of signing and part when saving the document. Mupdf already had a pdf_pkcs7_signer object that kept information between the two phases. That object has now been extended to include the pkcs7 functions involved in signing, and the signing function now requires such an object, rather than a file path to a certificate. The openssl-based pkcs7 helper provides a function that, given the path to a certificate, will return a pdf_pkcs7_signer object. The intention is that different implementations can be produced for different platforms, based on cryptographic routines built into the operationg system. In each case, for the sake of document signing, the routines would be wrapped up as a pdf_pkcs7_signer object.

2018-02-02Signature support: simplify pkcs7 api by the removal of byte ranges.Paul Gardiner
Rather than provide a stream and an explicitly defined set of byte ranges within that stream, provide a stream that gives access to just the bytes in the ranges.
2018-02-02Signature support: separate pkcs7 specifics into a separate file.Paul Gardiner
Previously, pdf-pkcs7.c contained mishmash of functions required for creating and checking signatures, with no separation between the parts relating to pdf and those relating to pkcs7. This commit introduces pdf_signature.c which contains the pdf specifics, leaving pdf-pkcs7.c to be purely pkcs7 functions. This should more easily allow the use of pkcs7 solutions other than openssl. The pkcs7 api is declared in pdf-pkcs7.h. It is entirely free of mupdf specifics, other than using an fz_stream to specify the bytes to be hashed.
